ESA after Carers allowance

Hi,
Would someone that has been claiming carers allowance and working part time with a small earning exception certificate for the past 4 years be entitled to contributions based ESA based on the class 1 national insurance credits, if they had stopped claiming carers allowance and working due to ill health?

My understanding is limited in this.
Without trying to re-understand the regs - I believe that CA may count for one of the two contribution conditions - but the other may rely on the earnings in the tax year before CA was claimed.
In that year were earnings reasonable?0
