IMHO no.
The cppcheck engine is very language-specific. There is almost nothing left which might be used for Java. For Java exist various code checkers - why don't you try to enhance those?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Might it a be possible to extend the cppcheck engine to a new project called javacheck ?
IMHO no.

if you want you can run cppcheck on a java file:
$ cppcheck --enable=all Fred.java
but it does not make much sense to do this. A dedicated java tool will work so much better.
