I'm pretty sure he can. The tongue is just a group of muscles. Some of us have more fast-twitch fibers in them, some of us have more slow-twitch fibers in them. I personally can only tongue continuous 16ths at around 120 per minute in single tonguing format. There are quite a few 'standards' in the repertoire that call for much more than this (ie Beethoven's 4th, Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream, etc.) so double/triple tonguing is kinda a must for us slow pokes.
