Yes, the medical student is eligible to apply for NDA examination. But, he is eligible to join only in Indian Army through NDA examination. To be eligible to join Indian Navy/ Indian Air Force, you should have passed 12th standard or an equivalent examination with Mathematics and Physics subjects from a Government recognised board. You can apply for NDA examination through online at UPSC official website once, the NDA examination notification is released by UPSC.
