If the above dates qualify the criteria below then your friend is eligible to apply. There is no rule that says "with in an year from the date he/she left canada"

"have at least 12 months of full-time (or an equal amount in part-time) skilled work experience in Canada in the three years before you apply,"

All CEC applications (both inside and outside Canada applications) shall be sent to the below address.

Centralized Intake Office – Canadian Experience Class (CEC)
P.O. BOX 4000
Sydney, NS B1P 1J3
Canada

As crama already correctly stated, the experience has to be gained within the last three years. That's all there is to it,
when he gained it exactly doesn't matter and it also doesn't matter when he left.

That was an old rule, does not apply anymore. The only rule is that the qualifying experience has to be within the 3 years preceding the application -
