You will get warm instead of hot water. There is a tube inside the tank on the cold side that goes to the bottom of the tank and the hot comes directly from the top. Reverse them and you are going to get the cold water that settles to the bottom of the tank. It will not hurt the tank or anything, it just makes for poor hot water.
A hot water tank works by storing and heating water inside an insulated tank using electricity or gas. When a hot water tap is turned on, the hot water is released from the tank and replaced by cold water that is then heated up for future use. This cycle continues to provide a steady supply of hot water for household needs.
If the hot water tank is off it is possible. It is also possible for the cold water going to the hot water tank to freeze. Insulate all pipes that are exposed - or let them drip (this is more expensive!)
it is a tank that preheats water and holds until you use it
