Is there a 2SAT encoding for a NAND gate

It seems, based on the comments in other answers, that what you are after is a 2-CNF formula $\phi(q, a, b)$ equivalent to $q \iff \overline{a \land b}$. This is indeed not possible; the only possible ...

Is there a 2SAT encoding for a NAND gate

There is no proof that it is impossible, but it is believed that it's unlikely to be possible, because if you could convert every circuit with NAND gates to 2CNF, you would have a proof that P = ...
