Our pool/spa store is closed for the week due to the holiday and I’m out of calcium hardness increaser. I have some HTH Calcium Up for my pool. Can I use that in my hot tub?
 
Sure but why do you need to increase CH? What is the current level? Why kind of heater does the hot tub have?

We just refilled our Caldera Vacanza series hot tub. My tap water runs at 20ppm and recommended levels are around 150ppm. I was able to increase CH to 60 with what I had left of my spa calcium hardness increaser that came with the tub.
