Actually, there are plans for Beagle to add some RDF to it, but it is more like an (experimental) RDF view on the Lucene indices. So it is not a pure and native RDF store. I think, even if it would be feasable to store RDF into that "view", it should not be done or become best practice. Once the first external application starts to use Beagle as an RDF store, other applications may follow. I think, this is not Beagle's scope.
The external application should either use a native RDF store running locally as a server, or it may maintain its own store and expose an query interface as Beagle's RDF view. Then, all those application specific RDF stores, as well as the central native store can be queried by applications in a distributed (local) fashion.
