This seems more like a Jena API question and would be best answered by 
the Jena team at their mailing list. The simplest answer I can give 
adding the triple [r rdf:type owl:Class] will make the resource r  a 
class but since the previous triples remain it will be both a class and 
an individual (which is allowed in OWL 1.1 through punning and supported 
by Pellet).
