Can I use "to be in a hurry" in this way in my sentence?

"I am in a hurry to go to school."
 
It's hard to answer. It's a grammatical sentence but whether it's suitable for whatever context you have in mind (you didn't tell us what that is), is impossible to say.

I don't have a context. :-(. Perhaps as a standalone answer to the question "What are you doing?"
 
Rachel, your sentence is grammatical, natural and very much possible. We're just trying to make sure you know in what situation to use it. :)
Can you think of a simple scenario/dialogue (similar to what Rover_KE has suggested above) as an example to demonstrate its use? Post below.

That's an unnatural answer to that question. Since you have been asked to come up with your own context/scenario for "I am in a hurry to go to school", I will instead tell you the correct way of answering "What are you doing?", whilst keep the same general idea.

What are you doing?
I'm rushing/running to school. I'm late!
 
Yes, in answer to your original post.
