I think based on what he's posted here that it could be published
professionally.

In fact Amazon has a program where he can do that himself:

https://amazonpublicationpress.com/book-publishing/

https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/GHKDSCW2KQ3K4UU4

Start publishing with KDP
KDP allows you to self-publish eBooks, paperbacks, and hardcover books for free. We give you direct access to your book on Amazon, and allow you to create a product detail page for your book. It also gives you the option to expand your book’s availability on a global scale, making it more accessible for readers around the world. Publishing with KDP gives you full rights to your book, which is not something a traditional publishing house typically allows.

Ready to get started? If you haven’t already, make sure to finish setting up your KDP account. Visit our Set up your KDP account page for more assistance.

What types of content can I publish through KDP?
KDP allows you to publish eBooks (Kindle) and print books (Paperback and Hardcover). However, KDP does not allow the creation of magazines, periodicals, calendars, or spiral bound books.

Content types typically published using KDP include but are not limited to the following:
Novels
Book Series
Children's Books
Comics
Cookbooks
Journals
Poetry
Textbooks

Am I able to use KDP for content currently published elsewhere?
Yes, if you own the rights to your book you can publish using KDP if it
has previously been published elsewhere. If your book has an existing
ISBN from a different publisher, it must have the same title, author
name, and binding type on KDP to continue using that ISBN. Any change
to the details of your book will require it to be a new edition and
have a new ISBN.
