He can, if he has a Permanent Residency Card issued by the government. Either way, he can also apply instead for an International Driving License.

PR and legal work pass allows foreigners to get a Malaysian driving license. Usually an international driving license, or a driving license recognised by Malaysia is enough though. On the other hand, a Malaysian driving license is a good thing to have, you can open banks accounts with it etc...
