I think you will need to declare it as a system requirement, e.g. like this package: https://github.com/cran/qtbase/blob/master/DESCRIPTION
But of course I cannot say for sure that this is still accepted on CRAN. FWIW I was experimenting with putting cmake in an R package, so that other packages can use it at build/install time, and it seems possible, so if there is interest I can give it another try.
