Is there a formula that i can use in a word table cell that will take a date
from one call and add a few days to automatically calculate the new date. In
Excel you type in the date + 45 and you get a new date 45 days later, for
example.
Can this be done in a word table?

Not so easily in Word.

You can use the DateAdd function in a macro to do it, or or see:

for a method of doing it with fields.

You may however want to consider just inserting an Excel spreadsheet into
the document rather than using a Word table.

Except when you are actually working in the spreadsheet, it can look like a
Word table, and you will then have all of the cell formatting/calculation
ability that is available in Excel.
