Im looking for a formula =SUBSTITUTE(I2, "{keyword}", "test") but in place of the word test i want to use a cell reference like C2. Can you use substitute in this way?

Definately.
=SUBSTITUTE(I2, "{keyword}", C2)
do you not think it might have been quicker to try it? than post on a forum and wait for a reply?

Have you tried it?
Yes, you can do that.
I2 = I love this junk
C2 = stuff
=SUBSTITUTE(I2,"junk",C2)
Note that SUBSTITUTE is case sensitive. "junk" must be an exact match of junk in the source string.
