In what application? Chemically speaking calcium and strontium are fairly similar to magnesium, but depending on what you're trying to do something else might work much better. For example, if you're looking for a light structural metal, aluminium may be an acceptable substitute, but if it's important that the chemistry be similar, aluminium probably won't work.
