Can you load two unrelated datasets in an R visual?

Hi there, 

 

I'm trying to load two unrelated datasets (no common variables) into an R visual in power bi. 

 

When I click "R visual" and select variables from my first dataset, I get an R script pop up with an object "dataset" contained within. If however I try to select variables from two datasets I get a message "Cant display the data because power bi cant detect the relationship between fields". Ideally I just want the R script which pops up to have "dataset1" and "dataset2". 

 

Is this possible?
