Dear Imran

Yes, it is possible. Note that they are not effect sizes in the usual 
meaning of the term and all the methods return for you is a p-value.

There are a number of packages available on CRAN and they are listed in 
the MetaAnalysis Task View https://cran.r-project.org/view=MetaAnalysis

I am the author of one of them (metap) which I think is a good package 
but clearly I have a conflict of interest here. If you have correlated 
p-values I would recommend poolr.
