He never says so, although it is certainly one possibility. Claudius is very cautious about diagnosing Hamlet's behaviour problem, unlike Polonius. Probably Claudius is worried that Hamlet may suspect the truth about the murder.

Why does Hamlet say he can not kill Claudius while Claudius is praying?
Because he believes that because King Claudius is praying, he soul will be cleansed. Because of this, he would not be damned to hell or purgatory when he dies. Instead, Hamlet decides to wait until King Claudius has slept with the Queen later that night before killing him (theoretically his soul would be sullied because of this). The reason this is such a big deal is because the ghost of old King Hamlet wanders trapped in purgatory since he didn't have a chance to confess his sins.

Do you feel differently about Claudius after hearing him express remorse?
Yes. Up to that point you see Claudius exclusively through Hamlet's skewed vision. In his "O, my offence is rank" speech, Claudius is shown to be a rational person, not the monster Hamlet believes him to be. He has committed a crime and a sin, and he knows it, and he knows that to really repent it he must give up the reward of his crime. Part of that reward is being married to Gertrude and he does not want to give that up because he loves her very much, no matter what Hamlet thinks.
