I do not doubt that this is possible with enough tooling. I think it will b=
e easier with the xtable R package.

But for issues like this I usually find it easier to export the document to=
 *.Rmd (R markdown) or *.Rnw (knitr) and render from there.

See https://github.com/chasberry/orgmode-accessories for some examples.
