Not really.

You can refresh the data that the reports ultimately use, but then you would need to initiate any internal Busines Objects reformatting via a command line. That command can be run from DataStage, but DataStage has no control over what the command does (though it can capture the output and exit status of the command).

That's easily fixed - get yourself a premium membership. There's a link from the DSXchange home page.
