You can use RN Localization setContent method, after using local strings. Check the docs:

Update / Overwrite Locale

You might have default localized in the build but then download the latest localization strings from a server. Use setContent to overwrite the whole object. NOTE that this will remove all other localizations if used.

strings.setContent({
  en:{
    how:"How do you want your egg todajsie?",
    boiledEgg:"Boiled eggsie",
    softBoiledEgg:"Soft-boiled egg",
    choice:"How to choose the egg"
  }
})

The feature you can use is Code Push here you will be updating the source JS files. if you use a dynamic JSON you will have to request it every time but using codepush you can update the source JSON itself.
