I already have my Duolingo English Test, I don’t know if I can use it instead of sitting for IELTS.

No, it’s not. Always check the application requirements on the university’s admissions website. If the university accepts Duolingo test, they say so on their webpage for international applicants.
I guess it can be a substitution. The test is adaptive, which has some significant consequences for test-takers. If you answer a question correctly, the next one gets harder. If you answer it wrong, the next one gets easier. This means that, with relatively few questions, the exam can pinpoint your ability level quickly—that’s why it only takes around an hour to complete!
