Hi,

No, you cannot use Azure Developer Associate certification as prerequisite for AZ-305.

To obtain Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert you need Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) and AZ-305. The order in which you take the two required exams does not matter, even though I believe most people take AZ-104 before AZ-305.
