If instead you want to duplicate your APL workspaces in J, good luck to
you, but you will get no sympathy from the J team.

Very early versions of J had saved workspaces, but they were removed
when it was realized that scripts work better. Once you become familiar
with the J IDE, you won't miss the workspace...."

Well, you will get sympathy from me. I love exploring in a workspace and 
then cut/paste the final cuts in something else.

The way I do this in J is to use a single large script which contains all 
my blurry stuff and load it when I want to "play" it's a tad more work 
than the traditionnal workspace but it has the advantage of not having to 
cut/paste from the .ijx session and makes it easier to move my code in 
"well structured IDE J team approved script files".
