Hi welcome to healthcaremagic.
I have gone through your question.
In klienfelter syndrome if there are no sperms or azoospermia due to damage to sertoli cells then its impossible to retrieve.
As these cells can not be regenerated or it can not produce sperms now.
So he cant become father on his own.
Hope i answered your question.
Would be happy to help you further.
Take care.
