Yes. Since you mentioned JRI - it gives you all of the above for free (there are CRAN binaries for Windows and OS X; it installs on unix system with Java; you can link arbitrary libraries from R - that's how R works). Good pointers are JavaGD (for graphics so you can embed it in your Java look and feel) and JGR since it does all this already.
Thanks for your answer. About R packages: how can I build, for each OS, a "distribution" containing the R Engine and the R packages I need as binaries compiled for the OS?
Depends on the OS, but really that is not an R question and you should ask your OS support teams. You can see how R does it -- it is in the open sources.
