As far as I'm aware you can get adapters for Hasselblad lenses to work on Nikon camera bodies but, not the other way around.

Does the Hassie have an FX crop mode?

The image circle of Nikkors is a good bit smaller than medium format film, so you'll be wasting a lot of image space even if you can get them to fit.

Edit: thinking a bit more about it, I'd guess that the mount-to-sensor distance is a bit more with the H1 than with Nikons, so your Nikkors won't focus out to infinity. A bit like having the lens on an extension tube all the time. Also, there's the small matter of the leaf shutter in the lens...

Not a hope I'm afraid.
The old Hasselblad was 2¼" square and the digital version has a corresondingly large sensor (when compared with our puny DSLRs) and the image circle would not cover anyting like enough.
Added to this the image plane would be too far back (to allow for the huge mirror) and the depth of focus would be about 20mm to 300mm
Sorry. You'll have to pull the wife's tights over your head, rob a bank and buy some Hassie lenses.
