There is a way - I did it. Just resize it with resize_reiserfs.
But backup your data first and run fsck --rebuild-tree after the fact.
In my situation I shrunk the partition to make room for
Ubunutu and lost most of the data on the disk (it later turned
out that it might also had to do with bad disk blocks), lucky I had
backup of most of the important stuff, and the rest I found under
lost+found (but with file names which somtimes reflected inode
numbers, thus it took lots of detective work and time to restore
useful info from them).
If you are shrinking the partition, consider the --scan-whole-partition
option of reiserfsck.
