It is not possible out of the box.
But you can write some custom code for it.

When an Item is added in the Inventory an event is triggered:
c_Inventory_OnAdd_ItemInfo_ItemStack

Checkout the examples on this page:

Events - Opsive

The inventory system uses two types of events. It uses the C# event system as well as the Opsive Event Handler which is used throughout . . .

opsive.com

you can get the ItemCategory from the itemInfo. and from there compare with your tools category.
Once you know if the item is a tool, you can find the hotbar, loop through each slot. And once you find an open space you set the item there.

var isTool = toolCategory.InherentlyContains(itemInfo.Item);
if(isTool){
    // Add to Hotbar.
    uint panelManagerID = 1;
    var panelName = "Hotbar";
    var hotbar = InventorySystemManager.GetItemViewSlotContainer<ItemHotbar>(panelManagerID, panelName);
    for (int i = 0; i < hotbar.SlotCount; i++) {
        if(hotbar.GetItemAt(i).Item != null){ continue; }
        hotbar.AddItem(itemInfo, i);
        break;
    }
}

I hope that helps
