This is a question about your OS, isn't it? Does your OS allow you to run multiple processes on different cores? Or maybe this is a question about RStudio. Does it allow multiple instances to run on the same computer, so your OS can allocate them to different cores? If you run your scripts in R (not under RStudio) it's certainly possible to have multiple R processes running at the same time. Just do it.
