In theory yes. But I've never heard of an optical splitter. That would be tricky to do with out affecting the signal due to the nature of optical.

The only issue I'm aware of is that the R-15PM optical input requires PCM (Stereo) mode encoding, according to the manual. The technical documentation I can find makes no mention of supporting Dolby encoding. So, provided your TV will output PCM (which is the default mode on every TV I own), and your sound bar will accept PCM, it should work fine. The splitter shouldn't care, as PCM mode is the lowest common denominator for all Toslink S/PDIF implementations these days. Use a good splitter. I've seen some real junk out there.
