In the report column attributes look for the region named Column Formatting. Inside this section is a text box for an "HTML Expression". Here you can add html to the report column contents e.g., <span title="My tooltip text">#COLUMN_NAME#</span>

The tooltip text could be from another column, you would just replace the contents of the title attribute with the column name surrounded by hashes.
