That's likely fine. If the sandbed in the 90g was clean and didn't have any problems, you should be able to reuse the sand. I've done that a few times when moving tanks.

If any of the sand is black or especially sulfur smelling, don't use it. Also, you cannot store it long in a bucket before it becomes anaerobic and produces potentially toxic hydrogen sulfide. A few hours is likely OK, but not 2 days.
