/org/gnome/shell/theme/ is not an actual directory that you can access (you cannot access that with dconf Editor either). This is due to the GResource mechanism, shell can get the resource from the resource:// URI. Generally they're not human-readable as they are pre-compiled into a binary format.
You can however extract the the resource using the gresource command. You should be able to find a .gresource file somewhere in /usr/share/gnome-shell/ directory for shell theme. First check whether it contains the resource you're looking for by running
gresource list /path/to/filename.gresource | grep <resource-name>
for example,
gresource list /path/to/filename.gresource | grep checkbox-off.svg
Once confirmed, run the following command to extract the resource
gresource extract /path/to/filename.gresource /path/to/resource
for example,
gresource extract /path/to/filename.gresource /org/gnome/shell/theme/checkbox-off.svg
It should show you the content of the .svg file.
You can use this resource without extracting in the .css file for your custom theme as follows
url("resource:///path/to/resource");
for example,
url("resource:///org/gnome/shell/theme/checkbox-off.svg");
