As with many or all of the Scrolls that came to be canonized into what we now call the Bible, there is zero proof who wrote the Book of Enoch or when, so to say that it was written long after Enoch was dead, has no merit, and to say that Enoch could not have been the writer is also without merit and can't be proven with any degree of certainty.
If Enoch did indeed write it, it could have very easily been passed down to Noah, then on down the line from there. This can be proven just as certainly as any other scenario...and plus, no one knows if the present form of the writing is the original form.
