I don't think this question, as asked, can be answered. Is the HackRF and Raspberry Pi signal compatble? Yes they are. Can you plug a HackRF into the Raspberry Pi and have it recoginize it and talk to it? Yes you can. Can you do all the things that people do with HackRFs when using a Raspberry Pi, no you cannot.
You can start that question from the other side though, like "I do <x> with my HackRF and my current machine, can I swap in a Pi and still do that?" (probably the answer is "no" unless you are just tuning in FM radio stations). So here is my recommendation, you will not be able to do anything other than tune a wider range of frequencies with a HackRF/Pi combination than you would with a RTL Dongle/Raspberry Pi. The latter is about $80 total cost US, the former nearly $500. If you want to tune ranges outside the RTL dongle's tunable range then build an RF mixer so that you can use to upconvert (or downconvert) signals outside of the RTL dongle's range into a frequency it can tune to. Even a mixer/RTL/Pi combo is going to be cheaper than the HackRF.
