No. Meringue is made of whipped egg whites and sugar. Because any trace of oil or fat will cause egg whites to fall, and because whipped cream is very high in fat, the two toppings cannot be combined.

Correction: Yes they can, but you must use a "cooked" meringue such as Italian Meringue. Each is made separately, then fold the whipped cream into the meringue until it is fully blended.

As for the two not being able to be combined, that is incorrect. Butter is also very high in fat content but butter (and sugar) is added to Italian Meringue to make Italian Meringue Butter Cream frosting.

Does cooked cream puff pastry need to be refrigerated?

If you have not added the cream to the pastry, it is fine unrefrigerated, just cover the pastry until you are ready to add the cream and serve it. If you have added the cream to the pastry, then cover and refrigerate the pastries. I recommend waiting to add the cream until right before, or at most a few hours before serving, otherwise the pastry becomes soggy. It still tastes fine, you just won't have the crispy pastry.
