There's one fan assembly in the cabin and I've never heard one squeak before. If yours is actually squeaking then you should changed the whole assembly out

I'm going to take a guess and say that the squeaking noise is the main bearing in the fan (that is wearing out).
Replacing the fan in my e60 is a full day job.

I have a similar but intermittent noise on the ventilation fan on my 2007 530i. I do my best to tolerate the noise and play with the controls until I can get it to subside. For me it's not worth tearing apart the entire dashboard area to try and fix it. But yours may be worse and/or your tolerance for that aggravation may be less and you'll want to fix it; if so best of luck.
