A single pole switch is used where there is only a single supply voltage that has to be broken.
What is the necessity of the starter.Can a single pole switch replace it?
A motor starter usually has an overload heater incorporated into it. A single pole switch does not have that type of protection. There are many brands of fractional motor starter switches. These types of switches are sized by the motors full load amperage. These types are dual purpose being that they can be used as the motors isolation switch and also they can be used as motor protection for the connected motor.

yes
What is difference between single pole and double pole switch?
A single pole switch interrupts only one wire, which must be the live wire. A double pole switch interrupts both the live and the neutral, so it contains two separate switches operated by the same lever. Current practice is to use single-pole switches, to avoid a fault condition which could leave equipment live while switched off.
