The phrase "such a person as" is a valid substitution for it. In the context of the sentence, using "such a person as" emphasises the specific type or quality of the person in question. The revised sentence conveys that he does not possess the characteristic of betraying a friend, framing the statement with a focus on the particular kind of person he is.
Therefore, the corrected sentence would be: " He is not such a person as would betray a friend. "
