    I found the solution:

     

    Sales LastYear =
    IF(
        MOD(YEAR(MAX('Calendar table'[Date]))-1,4) > 0,  -- to check if the previous year is a leap year
        CALCULATE (
            [Tot_sales],
            FILTER (
                ALL('Calendar table'),
                'Calendar table'[Date] <= MAX('Calendar table'[Date]) - 364 && -- if not a leap year subtract 364
                'Calendar table'[Date] >= MIN('Calendar table'[Date]) - 364
            )
        ),
        CALCULATE (
            [Tot_sales],
            FILTER (
                ALL ('Calendar table'),
                'Calendar table'[Date] <= MAX('Calendar table'[Date]) - 363 && -- if is a leap year subtract 363
                'Calendar table'[Date] >= MIN('Calendar table'[Date]) - 363
            )
        )
    )

Last year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales]),DATEADD('Date Table'[Date],-1,year))
