Yes, until they mature. Usually, they outgrow hypo. around age 4 mths. - but with "tinies", it can often take longer (and for some not-so-tinies).
She truly must feed frequent meals, and give Nutrical to avoid LONG periods of no food where the baby's sugar could dive (and, to just keep the sugar more stable). Also, she cannot just feed this baby chicken - or he will get diarrhea, become dehydrated, and be in a worse state than he is now. I would suggest she purchase a premium canned puppy food, a premium kibble - and slowly add the canned to the kibble. What puppy food is she now feeding?
I can't express how vulnerable these tinies are - esp. tinies who are prone to hypo. episodes - I TRULY hope your friend understands that they can die from a hypo. episode and how careful she needs to be.
