Yes he can. Which will oral herpes and it could be oral herpes hsv1 or hsv2 depending the type you were diagnosed for.

if you have genital herpes and your partner performs oral sex on you, he can't get herpes on his genitals.

He can contract your hsv2 orally from performing oral on you but the risk of that is very low.

I just wanted to clarify that more since I think answermyquestionplease's response was a little confusing in regards to what you were asking.
