No, outbound travel has to be before the voucher expiry, thus:
The Voucher is only valid if it has been acquired in accordance with the rules of this promotion. Vouchers must be exchanged for a ticket and all outbound travel from the UK must be taken before the expiry date on the Voucher, which is 12 months from the date of its issue. For example, a ticket routing Manchester via London Heathrow to South Africa (return), the London Heathrow to South Africa sector must be taken before the expiry date on the Voucher. Vouchers are non-extendable.
