For a skilled, certified and highly experienced cave diver, yes. Anyone else, a big fat NO!
 
Dreamdive is probably right on point.
 
Sometimes being solo in the cave is the only way to get through it.

Does your friend have cave diving experience?

In terms of safety it depends on the specific cave you are diving and the experience of the diver as to whether or not it is safe to go in alone.
