Question

Can I put my 2018 1098-T form to my 2020 taxes if I just started paying for school in 2020 ?

No you cannot do that.   You cannot put past year tax documents on a current tax return.  If you were someone else's dependent for 2018 then they could use that 2018 1098T on their tax return and get the education credit.   Whoever could claim you for 2018 can still amend  their 2018 return and use that 1098T if they want to.
