Yes, this sometimes happens (nursing strike) when baby is told no and is offended. (He doesn't care how mom feels bitten :-( Try picking him up and nursing him in his sleep. Try re-bathing. Lovely tub full of warm water and you and baby nice and naked. Be persistent, it usually doesn't result in weaning if mom tries some tricks.
