My fault, I misread your original message, something like the following
should work.  You can use the uppermost elisp code block to change the
value of the tangle-tag to whichever tag you wish to be tangled.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** conditional tangling
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent
  (setq tangle-tag "right")
#+end_src

*** first subheading                                                   :left:
#+begin_src R :tangle (and (equal (car (org-get-tags-at (point))) tangle-tag) 
"yes")
  "first"
#+end_src

*** second subheading                                                 :right:
#+begin_src R :tangle (and (equal (car (org-get-tags-at (point))) tangle-tag) 
"yes")
  "second"
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
