Technically it is certainly possible.

Legally, I don't think so.

This question has been posed several times already, so you can find
discussions about this issue by searching this list as well as
R-sig-mac (gmane is handy for that).

Here are some:

Not sure if Apple's terms have changed since 2010, I'd be on "no."

My guess is that a port of R on iOS would likely only work on a
jailbroken device.
