Can the company refuse to give a relieving letter?

Companies normally issue it once the notice period and exit formalities are done. If there is a dispute, check your employment contract and speak to HR in writing.

Can I use this letter as an experience letter?

Not always. Many employers want a separate experience letter. Tick "Also request an experience certificate" when you ask HR.
