Anything that is a COMMAND in PowerLoom can be accessed using the PLI.evaluate or PLI.sEvaluate method.  From Java I would imagine that PLI.sEvaluate would be the simplest method to use.  Something like

   PLI.sEvaluate("(assert-from-query (retrieve all (...)) :relation foo)", "MY-MODULE", null);

should work.
