I don't think so.

Before doing anything further with it, you should create an image of your
dying drive and analyze that instead. And create a 2nd image, in case you
mess up the first one while repairing it, and the drive really died in
the meantime.
dd if=/dev/sdf of=/mnt/sdf.img
unplug drive
cp /mnt/sdf.img /mnt/sdf.img2
OR
gzip -c /mnt/sdf.img > /mnt/sdf.img.gz
You can then try photorec from app-admin/testdisk, but reiserfs is not
really supported. But this looks promising:
