Angular Scope inside script

Question

Can we use the angular variables defined in scope inside script tag like below.

No you can't. $scope is only defined inside Angular, i.e. within your AngularCtrl-function. There are ways to get access to angular scopes from the outside, but that's usually bad practice and a sign that you're not using Angular correctly.

A more angulariffic way to do what you're trying is to make the alerting a part of the controller-logic:

function AngularCtrl($scope) {

    $scope.user_name = 'John';

    $scope.sayHi = function(){
        alert('Hi ' + $scope.user_name);
    }
}

You can then use a variety of angular-techniques (Demo Here) to call that sayHi() function. Some examples:

In response to a click

Demo clickable - Please click me

Automatically once when a given element is created/initialized

Demo ng-init

Directly from the controller when it is initialized

function AngularCtrl($scope) {

    $scope.user_name = 'John';

    $scope.sayHi = function(){
        alert('Hi ' + $scope.user_name);
    }

    // Call it
    $scope.sayHi();
}

Hopefully these examples are inspiring, but what you really should do depends on what you are really trying to accomplish.
