During this time, anyone can join the event raid, even people playing Pokemon Violet. So yes, Pokemon Violet owners can do the Hydreigon Tera raid event. It just needs to be done online with someone who owns Pokemon Scarlet. Hopefully, someone in Pokemon Scarlet will ask for help with a Shiny Hydreigon.
