will refrigeration keep them fresher and increase their shelf-life?

Unrefrigerated oils kept at room temperature become rancid and lose their healthful properties sooner than oils stored in the fridge. Store all oil-based supplements in a dark cold place.

you can but it's not necessary, just keep them out of direct sun light. fats like flax seed and hemp seed oil definetly need to be refrigerated.
