You can sent the result data of your experiment to any server you wish, not only JATOS. Your R server just need to have an HTTP interface that allows this. And there my knowledge of R ends: I don't know if R can be set up as a server this way.
But why don't you want to store your result data in JATOS and afterwards when all are collected export them to a file and run your R script on this file? It seems to be extra work to set up an R server.
How do you do your experiments? With OSWeb this might be difficult but if you program it yourself it's possible. But I wouldn't recommend it unless there is no other way because you have to run a second server next to JATOS and therefore add another instance that can have errors/failures/crashes.

hi
I want to automate the process of data analysis.
my goal is to calculate the results from the raw data after every subject run.

This reminds me of another recent question here: https://forum.cogsci.nl/discussion/6503/export-trial-by-trial-data-from-an-online-osweb-exp-running-in-jatos
