I used an Aluratek cloning device to clone a handful of drives. I found that one of the drives I cloned a new image to had a profile I need which I cloned over. I have tried EaseUS and did a deep recovery. I have found old information off the clone image which was deleted prior to designing the image for cloning, but not the user off the drive I cloned to. Is it even possible to recover the the user profile off the drive which was cloned?

A clone will over-write the full drive with whatever is on the source. Unless you bring the drive to a data recovery place there is no way to get the original data back, it's not just a deleted files you are looking for, the data was actually replaced with the drive you cloned from. You need some advanced and expensive methods to get the data from the drive.
