if education expenses for the spring 2025 semester were entered on a 2024 1098-T, can that amount paid for the Spring 2025 semester be added to the actual tuition paid on the 2025 tax return?

No, but those expenses could have been claimed on the 2024 tax return. That assumes that the 1098-T and the amount for the spring term was actually paid in 2024, not 2025.  It goes by when paid.
