Are we always allowed to treat an inductor as a battery with the same voltage?
When there is an induced emf, Kirchhoff's Loop Rule no longer is true, because electric fields are nonconservative when there is an induced current, as stated by Faraday's Law:
However, I have seen ...

Why $di/dt$ in inductor circuit reduces gradually after closing the switch?
When we close circuit having an inductor, an induced emf is generated across the inductor which opposes change in current through the circuit. This back emf depends on rate of change of current $di/dt$...
