I think you can estimate your model relatively easily using our
package {copula}  and the function  fitMvdc()

   https://search.r-project.org/CRAN/refmans/copula/html/fitMvdc.html

MVDC := Multivariate Variate Distribution {built from} Copula

To solve the question you asked --- but would not need to answer if
using fitMvdc(),
you can use  e.g.,

    > iTau(claytonCopula(), tau = 1.4)
    [1] -7

or look up the formulas for tau() or its inverse 'iTau':

  > copClayton@tau
  function (theta) 
  {
      theta/(theta + 2)
  }

  > copClayton@iTau
  function (tau) 
  {
      2 * tau/(1 - tau)
  }
