No,

Unless you are referring to the JR Kyushu Rail passes.

Online reservation allowed on trains operated by JR East but with condition - "Please collect your tickets before 9:00 p.m. (21:00, Japan Standard Time) of the day before you ride the train. You cannot get your tickets on the day you ride the train"

And . . . . despite the introduction of this reservation service by JRWest, it still does not cover the national rail pass.

(Big improvement though.)
