quartus_sh is a command line executable, not a tcl command. It is run in the context of the linux / windows/cygwin shell environment.

If you are at the tcl command line prompt in a tcl shell, then you can use the tcl 'source' command to read a file as a tcl script: 

tcl>  source some_file_name.tcl
