It's not forbidden, but it's a bad idea for two reasons:

1. The mailing list software won't forward the other address
   through, so only _your_ messages will go to them.
2. If they do reply to your message, it won't go to the list
   anyway.

I'd suggest helping your friend subscribe to the group.
