Quick lounge access question

Question

Bit of confusing wording here - have a feeling the answer is "no," but may be able to weasel my way into making it work:

r/Amtrak - Quick lounge access question

https://www.amtrak.com/station-lounges#eligibility

I have a LSL sleeper cabin trip tomorrow from NYP, would I be able to get a friend into the NYP lounge even though he's not traveling with me?

If not, could I conceivably buy the cheapest Flex fare ticket for him, get him into the lounge and then cancel the ticket afterwards?

TIA.

I’d just buy the cheapest flex fare ticket out of NYP to like Newark or something for 5-6 hours later that day and then refund it.

Protip. This also works for getting in yourself, book a sleeper, get into the lounge, refund the sleeper.
