My android phone went for a swim in the harbor last night. I need to add that phone number to my Galaxy profile so I can receive calls and texts. Is there anyway to add that number without a security code being sent to a device that can't  receive it?

No.  If you were receiving calls and texts before it was because you were BT connected to your phone, without the phone there's no way to do that. 

Depending on your carrier, it might be possible to enable calling from your LTE tablet by buying a different plan but most US carriers don't offer that.
