No, the license is not valid unless the person works for a broker.
To get access to the MLS you have to have an active license, be a member of the real estate board and of course pay for the access.

Full access to MLS data is restricted to active real estate agents who work under a broker, to brokers themselves, and to appraisers, who need the sales data to perform their work. In all cases, there are annual and monthly fees required to maintain access.
