Yes, IF the device is not carrier locked, or is locked to the same carrier he wants to use.

Activation lock Hey everyone. I’m just wondering, If I reset my iPad in settings with my Apple ID, will the “Activation lock” show up if I’m gonna setup the iPad? And if example, my sibling used the iPad with his Apple ID and he logged it out and give the iPad to me and signed in my Apple ID and reset it with my account, will the “activation lock” show up and requiring me to log in my sibling’s Apple ID and not mine? Thank you! (Sorry if my English is bad)
