Only on some versions (the more expensive ones) and only some of the software.
Actually I think a case for the technet can be made as he is a student and using the tools to learn on, as long as he's not running a commercial website or developing commercial software on it it would be within the spirit of "evaulation".
If you want to make software for sale then get the MSDN, though the cheaper versions don't come with any office tools.
So... If you merely want to leanr how to code or admin and become proficient ahead of your peers without making money offof it and without installing it on all your friends machines, then Technet + the "Basic" versions of the MSDev tools would work.
If you want to make software to sell, then get the cheaper MSDN subscription and Office Home and Student and you would be set that way.
