As far as I can tell, you can not do that.

Text objects - no problem:

Columns can not be rotated; try and you'll get the "REP-3103: Only text and graphical boilerplates can be rotated" error.

Yes you can do it!

Draw a boilerplate text object and reference your field in this object by using "&" (&<column_name>).
This text object can be rotated by using the rotate tool. Then your database field will be rotated.

For additional help, search for "rotate tool" in the help system of report builder.
