As suggested below, Electric has support for FastHenry. That could be handy. 
Expect the usual hassles getting and compiling it for Linux. My experience is that it pretty much works out of the box if you are familiar with doing such things. You can also find windows binaries through google.

Since it going to be difficult to model the transformer in electric do you know of any other open source program I could use to model to the transformer in and then import the model into electric?

This must be possible to do in Electric but certainly nothing as streamlined as in Cadence. Search up this list for "Asitic tool" and "pure layer", extract actual inductance/coupling with FastHenry, then iterate on the geometry. 

Good luck,
