Lately I noticed when my son is laying down I can clearly see his pulse in his neck. You can see every beat clearly as well. Is this normal?

Yes, this can be normal.
You can see and feel the heartbeat in anyone if they are sick or the spot is swollen,

I don’t think that this is very serious problem but also it’s not a normal thing. Does he have any cardiovascular problems? How is his pressure? Have you ever measured it?
The spot where doctors feel the pulse on our neck is on the carotid artery. There the artery is near the skin and sometimes it’s very easy do notice the skin pulsing up and down. It’s just our blood going to the brain.
If your child hasn’t had any other health problems I think that there is no need for you to take him for doctors visit. If you go for another reason to see a doctor ask him to look this up as well, then you’ll be sure if there is something wrong here.
