Can you use sodium chloride rather than calcium chloride in fresh water swimming pool for hardness?
No, because it's not the chloride part that's responsible for the hardness, it's the calcium. Sodium chloride is actually used in water softeners, so it's not a great choice if you're looking to increase the hardness. You could use calcium hydroxide, though this will also make the pool more alkaline which may not be ideal.
