Can we use a lookup table to replace in the case like statements? 
For Example:
          index="example"| eval ErrorMessage=case(like(Errormessage,"%Bad Connection%"),"Check Your Connection",
              like(Errormessage,"%Wrong Password%"),"Please check the password",
              like (Errormessage,"%Invalid code%"),"Please enter a valid code", 1=1,"NEW Error")

When the query is like this can we use look up table where if we found the message in A column which contains % wildcards we need to replace it with the one in the B column which has the fixed value?

Yes, you can have a lookup with wildcard match type.

It's not about how you use the lookup. It's how the lookup is defined. You must have this lookup defined with the particular match type. Otherwise you cannot match with wildcards.
