In Elements, you can only grab a single frame of the video using Premiere Elements.

 

However, you can edit a Live Photo on your iPhone, and select and save a single frame as a jpeg.  See here for one way to do it.

Apparently LivePhoto is not a movie format. https://9to5mac.com/2015/09/11/how-live-photos-works/ describes the tech before it was converted to HEIC.
