Sweating is a natural bodily function controlled by the sweat glands, not by deodorants. Deodorants only mask body odor and do not stop sweating. When you apply deodorant, it may create a barrier that blocks sweat odor, but it doesn't stop you from sweating altogether.

What does deodorant do?

Deodorant is spread into the armpit to help mask the smell of sweat. They do not cause your armpits to sweat less, though. Antiperspirants plug the sweat glands up in your armpits so that you do sweat less. Most antiperspirants also have a deodorant in them as well, to not only help you to sweat less, but reduce any odor caused by the sweat in your armpits.

That would depend on the extent of the injury or birth defect that led to him having no arms in the first place. If he was missing everything below the elbow, but still had armpits, then yes, he would need to apply deodorant. If he has no armpit area, deodorant would be unnecessary because he wouldn't have the apocrine (odorous) sweat glands.
