From the JetBrains website:

These annotations are proprietary ones and included in the bundled JAR. We at JetBrains suggested to include these annotations in the standard Java SDK. The issue is still pending.

Currently the annotations are distributed under the Apache license. The source code is supplied as well.

So, not only you can use them in Eclipse, you can do so without violating some commercial license. And they're even available in Maven.

However, you may want to read some related questions here on SO:
