You can use row().data API method to set data for the row if you store row index or node after user clicked on the row.

table.row($row).data(d).draw();

If your table data source is Ajax and you update the server after the row has been edited as well via Ajax, it makes sense to reload the table instead with ajax.reload() API method. For example:

// Reload table without resetting the current page
table.ajax.reload(null, false);
