Unless firewall rules (or routing) on either end get in the way, you have
a transparent IP connection through the tunnel - so SSH to the rPI should
be just fine, no extra config needed on the OpenVPN side.

(Easiest is to SSH to the "tun0" IP address, as you do not have to
concern yourself with routing the rPI LAN address through the tunnel)
