    Well the larva stage can last as long as 5 years, so i'm not sure if that counts

    Dragonflies (Order Odonata) definitely live more than 24 hours. Although the adults are relatively short-lived (usually no more than four weeks), the aquatic immatures (naiads) may live for up to three years before molting to the adult stage. Your friend may be mistaking them for mayflies (Order Ephemeroptera), in which the adults of some species do not live more than a day or so.
