Correct, but you have to ask yourself, do you really need updates for a box that even if it gets infected can't hold onto an infection between loads of the VM. That being said, getting something like cryptolocker would really suck, so you might want to come up with a procedure so that the machine gets updated periodically but goes right back to being locked down, but if he's only using the system for strictly the bare minimum, the likelihood of getting an infection is slim to none.
