RS is often jokingly referred to as standing for Real Slow...
The short answer to your question:
No, no TPI on RS's
The long answer:
RS introduced in '87 with only a LB8 V6 and only in CA... no '88 RS produced, '89 RS came with LB8 V6 or L03 V8 and '90-'92 RS available with either LH0 V6 or L03 V8.

In 91 you could get a RS with TPI even the 350 but it was a B4C, which is technically an RS, but is more of a Z28 in RS badging.

Willie has said it was possible to get a 305 TPI in a 90 RS Convertible, but none exist. Realistically, the only stock TPI engines in RS's are the 91-92 B4C police package.

And to confirm what Kevin stated, the 305 TPI was an option on the 1990 RS Convertible, only none were produced.
