A package enters experimental. It fixes bug X. Can the bug now be recorded as closed in Debian? -- Brian.

Yes. However, the bug will not be archived before the fix arrives in
unstable, unless it only affected experimental in the first place.
Cheers,
Sven

Debian maintainers use that branch to upload beta, release candidates or very green major versions of packages or they use that branch - experimental, during freeze period to upload newer versions there.

In general the version of the package with the fix should be included when closing a bug (regardless of release), or adjusted later with 'found' and 'notfound'. The BTS will then be able to show in which releases the bug is fixed (or not) and other tools that rely on the BTS can act accordingly (e.g. testing migration).
