TLDR : Answer Summary
There are mixed opinions about applying for a DTV visa with a passport that has 9 months left until expiration. Some comments suggest that while it's not ideal, you can apply if your passport has at least 6 months of validity for the initial entry. However, one comment states clearly that the passport must be valid for at least 1 year as per the E-Visa website.

NO, it must be valid for at least 1 year as mentioned on the E-Visa website

Certainly not ideal, but if you have no other option, it is possible to apply with the regular minimum of six months passport validity and carry both passports together with the visa, which remains valid for the full five-year period. The passport should have at least six months validity for the first entry.
