401k Hardship withdrawal deposit to HSA

[Guest new2this]

I have more medical expenses than my budget can handle and I'm considering taking a hardship withdrawal from my 401k. For tax purposes, would it be possible to deposit the money directly into my HSA? I haven't found anything online that says yes or no either way.
