The zest from any other citrus fruit would work fine. However, the recipe will taste like that citrus instead of lime. I suppose a bit of lime juice could work, but I wouldn't suggest it for a particularly delicate recipe, especially if you're baking. Something sturdy like a soup or stir fry should be fine, though, if you substitute juice for zest.
