Unfortunately time/date formatting is provided by the OS and is independent of the translation function of the Qt application.

Is there any way to do so, and the date and the interface is the same russian language?

The problem is that nickel only tries to load qm files of those languages that are officially supported. Maybe it is possible to add languages to the list of supported languages or maybe rather to replace a supported language by your own by patching nickel/libnickel.
I have installed the original English qm file as trans_ja.qm, and selected Japanese as interface language. The effect is that my interface is now in English, I can switch the keyboard between English and Japanese (that was my point of doing the whole thing), there is no italic formatting of menu entries any longer, and - this point might be interesting for you - the date is displayed as "2015/06/24". There might be some other changes that you would not like, for instance in the Settings > Date and time, the date is written in Japanese.
