I have custody of my son, 17 years old, and will be claiming him as a dependent. Can he also file for a refund from a short part time job he held last summer?

Yes, he can file a return to get the tax withheld back. If you use Turbo Tax, be sure to indicate that he is being claimed by someone else so that the correct exemption is applied.
