To qualify for the Pell, you’d need at least a 50% course load.
At some colleges, that could be 2 classes a term. Not easy to do working 40 hours a week (pretty much impossible if you work more hours than that). So he’d have to work his way up to where 40 hours a week pays enough.
I believe you may take loans as a PT student. Though both Pell and Federal Loans have a limited number of years.
