If my 17 year old son has to file a tax return to a refund, can I still claim him as a dependent on my return?

My son worked part-time this past year. The store he worked for took out taxes that we think he is due to get a refund for.  In order to get the refund for him, it is my understanding I need to submit a separate return for him.  If I do this, will I still be able to deduct as a dependent on my tax return?
