I applied to JET last year and was placed on alternate. I applied to Interac and was accepted. This year I got offered an interview with JET again.
I am suppose to leave with Interac in March and I know the JET results won’t come out until May.
Is it possible for me to be in Japan, find out my results , go back to my home country and leave for JET? I am just worried about the VISA and legal paperwork.

Sounds like a headache
Personally, I would take my chances and just drop out of Interac and go with the Jet interview. You can always apply for interac again in the future.
Like the other person said, sounds like a headache. Flying back and forth and wasting a lot of time and money.
Not sure whether you have already told Interac you will accept their March start. But I was in a similar situation a few years ago. I applied to Interac around January and was accepted around the same time I did the interview with JET (the application process with Interac was much faster than I anticipated).
From memory, Interac mentioned that they have 2-3 major start dates throughout the year. I was initially offered to start in Spring, but I asked to defer the start date to a later one in the year. In the meantime, I got accepted by JET, so I contacted Interac a few months later and said that I needed to cancel the offer due to personal circumstances.
Is it really worht it?
