I have run out of dosing pumps. I am using three to run my auto water changes (new salt in, old salt out to frag tank, frag tank out to drain) and three for dosing (Ca, Alk, and Vinegar).

I would like to bring my Kalk reactor back online but I need to free up one of my pumps. I want to know if I can combine either of my two-part additives with the vinegar. Is this possible or will I affect the potency of the additive in a negative way?

Yes, you can chemically mix vinegar into either one. The only concern is that bacteria may grow in it, depending on the final pH attained which depends on the amount of vinegar and the specific two part used.
