The JRE can access the GPU via libraries/bindings such as JOCL: http://www.jocl.org/
That said, elasticsearch can be thought of as a wrapper around Lucene. It would make sense for the Lucene layer to take advantage of the GPU. Also, for the most part, elasticsearch tends to be more memory and IO bound and not CPU.
