Indeed! And see eg our forthcoming / in-print R Journal paper with some details, background, motivation, ... on both Rocker and "versioned" images: https://rjournal.github.io/archive/2017/RJ-2017-065/index.html | You could even create your own image with all the | packages and other dependencies that you need.

Debian, with its volunteers, has something like that in the "Snapshot" repository at http://snapshot.debian.org/ but Debian also cuts releases differently.
