Absolutely. B18a1 is a great motor to turbo. I prefer that option over a swap.
If your looking for big power gains N/A, well you might swap motors lol.

Rebuild the B18a before you turbocharge it, or you'll regret it.

I'm not sure what your asking. Will the B18a1 head fit on the type R block.. ?
First off, why on earth would you do that?

I wouldn't say you need to rebuild your motor before you turbo it.. but at least check compression to make sure it's healthy.

will a type r block fit on a b18a1
You're gonna need to clarify this statement for me. Are you asking if a Type R motor will fit in your engine bay or what?

Don't forget a leak down test as well.
