A: I can't remember my password for the life of me./For the life of me, I can't remember my password.
B: He can't remember his password for the life of him./For the life of him, he can't remember his password.
The B sentence is still sort of unnatural even after revision.

It just sounds awkward to say (because "for the life of me" is usually used by the speaker and not for others, though using it for others isn't incorrect, but just sounds a little strange). If you have to write it, the better way would be to use "For the life of him, he couldn't remember his password," since it's easier to understand.
