From Wikipedia:
> There is no known way to defragment a ReiserFS filesystem, aside from a full
dump and restore. However ReiserFS v4 has a repacker that takes care of file
fragmentation.

From /usr/share/doc/reiserfs4progs-1.0.5/TODO.gz:

* online/offline resizer/repacker, manual page resizefs.

So looks like even reiser4 cannot be defragemented without a dump/restore cycle.
