Yes, make a local installation on your home directory or another machine which you have write access to.
AFAIK, you cannot update R itself. You will need to install R-1.9.1 and delete the old version as opposed to upgrading from it. You can try to salvage the "lib" directory but it is much better to re-download the latest versions of packages if internet access is not a problem. R-1.8.0 is fairly outdated anyway.
