NQSO, tax withholding and safe-harbor

As I understand, the IRS requires that employers withhold taxes when NQSOs are exercised. I'm curious if this rule stands when an employee ceases to be an employee (non-employee) and exercises any remaining vested shares under the terms of the option agreement. If the exercise happens in the next year, then would it possible to take advantage of "safe-harbor"?
