I created one distribution profile for app store submission. Can i test my application in device with the same profile.
Or otherwise i need to create some other profile with ad hoc distribution?

A Distribution Provisioning Profile is a combination of your App ID and Distribution Certificates. It authorizes your app to use particular services (like Push Notifications) and ensures that your app is submitted by you. This is why Distribution Certificates are tied to a specific Mac.
A provisioning profile links your signing certificate and App ID so that you can sign apps to install and launch on iOS devices. You must have a development provisioning profile to sign apps for use with iOS Gateway version 3.4 and later.
Creating the Provisioning Profile of Type App Store Sign in to your Apple Developer account and navigate to Certificates, IDs & Profiles > Identifiers > Provisioning Profiles. Add a new provisioning profile. Activate App Store. Click Continue.
Log in to developer.apple.com. In the Provisioning Profile section, click the + button to add a new one. Select the type of profile, such asApp Store or Ad Hoc, and click Continue. Select your App ID from the drop down list and click Continue.
You can not use an app store provisioning profile to test on a device. You can use an ad hoc profile, or a development profile.
Both ad hoc and development profiles require you to specify your device id.
The difference between an ad hoc and a development profile, is that a development profile can be used to debug. That is, you can use Xcode to build and install the app right on your device, and then step through code as the app is running to see values variables hold etc.
An ad hoc profile allows you to build an .IPA file and share that with beta testers (assuming of course you included their device id in the profile, or you have an Enterprise account/profile). They can install the .IPA file via iTunes (so they don't have to be a developer, or on Mac for that matter).

Yes, you have need to create ad hoc distribution profile for test. You cann't test with distribution profile(app store submission). read this About Store Provisioning Profiles and Creating Store Provisioning Profiles

Sorry!! you can't.
App Store > create a distribution provisioning profile to submit to the App Store Ad Hoc > create a distribution provisioning profile to install a limited number of registered devices.
So you need to create a new Ad Hoc type distribution profile to install your device.
