Unless you're both talking about the same hotel, his result will not be that informative.
Getting club lounge access for cash when not staying in a club room is completely dependent on the property.
At some properties it is almost always possible, while at other it is against hotel policy. You have to contact the hotel directly. And just because someone might be able to do it this month does not necessarily mean that someone else will be able to do it next month. Always contact the hotel with specific reference to your own reservation to be sure.
