All objects radiate energy at a rate depending on their temperature.
The size of the sun determines its temperature and the amount of energy radiated. Electromagnetic energy from the sun comes to Earth in the form of radiation.
Electromagnetic Spectrum
In principle, electromagnetic energy can be measured. However, I am not quite sure what you mean by "the electromagnetic energy of a person". A person does not emit significant amounts of electromagnetic energy, except for infrared energy emitted by any object due to its temperature. If you mean that, yes, it can be measured as well.
The Wien’s law for maximum intensity is, Here, is the wavelength of maximum intensity and T is the temperature of human body. Rearrange the above expression for . Substitute for T to find . So the maximum energy is radiated at 9355.83nmK. Humans emit infrared off radiation which is electromagnetic radiation with a frequency lower than visible light.

House lights radiate energy as electromagnetic waves in the wavelength bands of heat and visible light.
Electromagnetic radiation.

Photons
Stars that are cool normally radiate ther energy in the electromagnetic spectrum as red. Even though all the sky appear to be white, Hot stars radiate much longer wave lengths, causing an almost blue color to be emitted.
Electromagnetic Spectrum
It is because stars and other cosmic objects, radiate energy across the whole of the electromagnetic spectrum.

All bodies are subject to entropy, the constantly increasing disorder of the universe, all energy tends to thermal equilbirum thus, places of high energy/temperature/ pressure/ will radiate into places of lower energy/ temperature/ pressure. Also see wiki on blackbody radiation for more detail on that topic.
