I don't see why not. Have him ask his parole agent, or the local Board of Pardons and Paroles about an "Interstate Compact" to the state of Oklahoma. It can take a while to get all the paperwork completed and processed between the sending and receiving states, but once the receiving state agrees to allow him to resume his parole supervision in their jurisdiction, you should have no problem. They will want to know where you will be living, if he intends to work or go to school there, etc. If he has a job lined up, they will want the name, addresss, and telephone number of his future employer, and so forth. Some states are incredibly particular about granting Interstate Compacts to people so be sure that he finds out [from his PO] all the specifics of the city and county where you will be living in OK. It sometimes helps if the parolee has previously established residence, or has family in the receiving state as well.
The only thing you would have to worry about is if his request for an Interstate Compact is rejected - be sure to find out why... That, and any processing fees or "bond" money (to transport a wayward parolee back to the jurisdiction where he was convicted) required to submit the request / application. Beyond that, it IS possible to transfer parole to a different location, it just takes a while.
Cheers, and best wishes. =)

He has to ask his parole officer. If he says he can't leave the state it may be possible to go before a judge and have the terms of the parole changed.

He will have to get the permission of his Parole Officer, and he will have to make arrangements in Oklahoma to be seen by a Parole Officer there.

Check with his Parole Officer.

It depends on the state, the crime, and what his parole officer says.
This is a very legalstic issue, and it's something you should discuss with an attorney rather than on this forum.

no. there is no way, for any reason that the parole officer would let someone leave the state. The "ex-con" has an obligation to the state in which they were incarcerated...

Only if it doesn't violate his parole.

That depends on the condition of his release.
