His IRA is his alone so he must be age 59 1/2 or older to avoid the 10% early distribution penalty.
Sorry he has to be over 59 1/2 for his IRA.
Only the age of the owner of the IRA matters--not the spouse's age. If the owner of the IRA was younger than 59 1/2 then the distribution is subject to the early withdrawal penalty and ordinary income tax.
