Condensed milk is just that, milk that has been reduced in volume (and has added sugar) to about 1/3 the original. Cream on the other hand is milk fat, with no added sugar. For substitutions you will get quite different results in consistency and taste. evaporated milk has been reduced in volume by 1/2, and has no added sugar.
To substitute evaporated milk for condensed milk you need to reduce any other liquids in the recipe to compensate for the extra liquid in the evaporated milk and you will need to add sugar. To substitute cream you will need to reduce any fats in the recipe to compensate for the fat in the cream and again add sugar.
You will be better off finding another recipe for pumpkin pie which does not use condensed milk.
**Note: whipping cream is typically heavy cream with an added component (sodium caseinate, or carageenan or both, sometimes neither) that aids in maintaining the stiff peaks when whipped. (double cream in the UK is heavier than heavy cream in the US).

Yes you can! If you're like me and leave your condensed milk in the pantry at room temperature, then I would suggest chilling it in the freezer for at least 20 minutes beforehand (chilling the bowl is also a good idea). Condensed milk is also a great choice because it has less cholesterol than regular whipping cream.

Is condensed milk the same as cream?
No, it isn't. Condensed milk is created when water (approximately 60%) is removed from cow's milk, and it typically has sugar added to it. Condensed milk usually contains at least 8% milk fat and 28% milk solids. Cream, on the other hand, is created when the fatty part of milk is skimmed from the top of the milk before it is homogenized. There are different types of cream, including: half-and-half, light cream (or coffee cream), light whipping cream, and heavy cream (or heavy whipping cream). The exact amount of milk fat in any one of these creams varies by country. In general, half-and-half cream will contain 10.5-18% milk fat, light cream will contain 18-30% milk fat, light whipping cream will contain 30-36% milk fat, and heavy cream will contain at least 36% milk fat.
What can you substitute for whipping cream?
If you are planning on WHIPPING the cream, say to make whipping cream for a dessert, there really isn't a substitute you could make at home. There are of course commercial substitutes that are made with oil, but you're far better off using the real thing. You also shouldn't substitute for cream when baking, because the ratios in baking for flour, fats, proteins, leavening agents and the like are temperamental, and its best not to tamper with them unless you know what you are doing. If you have a cooking recipe that calls for heavy cream, however, such as for a cream soup, or adding to a sauce, you can substitute either milk, half and half or light cream, and just add a few tablespoons of butter. I believe the ratio is three tablespoons of butter to each cup of milk to approximate heavy cream, if you are using light cream, you could probably reduce the butter to two tablespoons per cup.
