Yes, you can fill those pots with hydroton. It might be best to drill holes in the sides, as well, to allow roots to grow out of the pots and into the flood table.
Once that happens, you'll want to cover the top of your flood table so those roots arent getting light.

On a side note:
400w is too small for a 4x4 tray. Either get bigger lights or a smaller tray.
3x3 trays are good for 400-600watts.
in a 4x4 tray youll want 600 or 1000 watts
