You cannot get a MPH rating without MCC-period.
You can either get the MCC course (VFR or IFR, depending upon your needs) BEFORE you get a MPH-rating, or you combine the MCC-course with your MPH-rating…
Either way, MCC needs to be completed before you can do your final check ride on a MPH.
I don´t comment on how you could get your ATPL without MCC (stopped wondering on how spain and portugal "handle" things that no other EASA country does)….
