If you are using Oracle database then try this:

SELECT TO_CHAR(TO_DATE($P{ParamName}, 'J'), 'Jsp')
FROM dual

This spells out whatever number you pass through $P{ParamName}. You can use this select clause in your main query's SELECT clause and use it.

Process your datasource before passing it to the report.

Using ibm's ICU4J you can convert amount into words by doing something like

double num = 2718;
    RuleBasedNumberFormat formatter = new RuleBasedNumberFormat(Locale.ENGLISH, RuleBasedNumberFormat.SPELLOUT);
    String result = formatter.format(num);
    System.out.println(result);

Will print

two thousand seven hundred eighteen
