In an grid system 2-1/2" and 1-1/4" can I use pipe saddles instead of 2-1/2x2-1/2x1-1/4" tees?.
 
Of course...no reason to use the tees. Unless you have money to burn. If you are using steel piping, it would be cheaper to have the fabricator weld outlets onto the main. This is common practice and leads to a lower installation cost overall.
