Is noise frequency cancelling possible this way?

[Shoyriazu]

Ok my friend would like to extract the vocals of a song.

He has tried center channel audio extract but unfortunately the guitar happens to pull out with the voice.

He is asking if there is a way to cancel frequencies using a karaoke and original.

For example, he has the original version of the song and the karaoke version of the song. He wants the karaoke to be a noise canceller, silencing any sounds that are similiar to it, thus erasing all the instruments and leaving behind the vocals.

Is there a way to use this using Adobe Audition? Or even Audacity maybe?

Short answer - no. Unless the karaoke version is in fact the original recording sans vocals. This is rarely the case.
