Flying F/J on a domestic segment does not get you into the lounge, so even if the lounge access rule applied to the entire itinerary he still would not be eligible to enter for his trans-Atlantic flight.
(On the other hand, if he is flying CDG-JFK-ATL-FLL in Biz/F, he is allowed into lounges in all of those airports as long as it is the same day as his CDG-JFK flight.)
