No way I know of within GRASS, but it is quite easy if you export the map
to Matlab (or GNU Octave) and then reimport the result to GRASS.

GRASS: r.out.mat, r.in.mat

Matlab/Octave:
>> map_data = map_data';   % (transpose)
>>  % and also change map n,s,e,w bounds as needed before resaving .mat file


probably a similarly simple task if you use the R-statistics/GRASS
integration.
