Short answer: No — River Phoenix could not have known James Dean personally.
Why: James Dean lived 1931–1955; River Phoenix was born in 1970 and died in 1993, so their lives did not overlap. That said, James Dean remained a major cultural influence after his death, and Phoenix (like many actors) may have been familiar with or compared to Dean. If you meant something else — for example whether Phoenix cited Dean as an influence or was ever compared to him — tell me and I can give more detail.
