No. You can't. But you can add cream of tartar to baking soda as a substitute for baking powder. The formula is here:

They are two very different things, baking powder helps things rise, baking soda helps things spread.

You cannot substitute one for the other because they are made differently and have different purposes.
For all cooking realted questions I usually go to www.cooks.com- they have the best resources!
