My knowledge of macOS is based mostly on hearsay, but I suppose the
usual way would be to specify appropriate ./configure flags -- which
might be mentioned in ./configure --help.

% ./configure --help | grep -i tcl
  --with-tcltk-includes='-I...'
                          override search for Tcl and Tk include files
  --with-tcltk-libs='-L...'
                          override search for Tcl and Tk libs
