Well, yes, but a paedophile is someone who is attracted to prepubescents.
Ephebophilia is adolescents, which your average 14 year old is.

Though "paedophilia" is a catchall term that is used without regard for its strict original meaning, he is technically not a paedophile.

Yet male can be used as a noun
"the male of the species" etc, so it makes grammatical sense.

If indeed that really is sense.

You are a paedophile
you are a nonce, you're a perv, you're a slot badger, you're a two pin din plug, you're a bush dodger, you're a small bean regarder, you're an unabummer, you're a nut administrator, you're a bent ref, you're the crazy world of Arthur Brown, you're a fence foal, you're a free willy, you're a chimney bottler, you're a bunty man, you're a shrub rocketeer...

Isn't paedophilia attraction to the sexually immature?
a 14 year old is past puberty, so he is not a paedophile.
