I have a R syntax file of a survey. The survey was accidentally deleted. Would it be possible to recreate the survey from this file?

The R syntax export is about responses. You will be able to extract some infos depending on the export options, but you will have to rebuild the survey from scratch. You won't be able to just import a R syntax file into LimeSurvey and have an working survey structure.
Not really. But if you have very long survey with very similar questions, like a hundred questions of type 'short free text', you can make an example survey, export it as .txt file, make a script that read R syntax file and writes txt-file, and then import txt-file to LimeSurvey. I suppose it is faster way only if you have many similar R files.
Conditions and many settings for questions can not even in theory be recovered from R syntax file.
