I had a boost expire after the subscription expired and account was left 
dormant for quite a while. Forgot to use it , not available when I got back.
BUT a check to confirm

http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/14507010673
blue post Vrakthris

says these won't expire.

  Just in case I would suggest try and use it before the account shuts down.

Getting a char to 60 , assign 2 profs then boost, gives you the 
professions boosted to 600 even if they were 1.
  New boosts are supposed to run the quests in the start zone to get 
abilities.
One way to do it but profs are much easier to level 1-700 in draenor anyway.
At least much less effort than grinding a character from e.g. 20-60 in 
your limited time.
