RBS50
I have an ORBI Mesh System ORBI5 with an RBR20 router. Would an Orbi RPS50 be compatiable as a member of my mesh network?

Yes it will though the higher wireless back haul speed will match 866Mpbs that the RBR20 supports and you will not get 1733Mpbs which the RBS50 supports when connected to RBR50. Thought the RBS50 will work fine.

Assuming you mean RBS50, yes it will work fine as an addition to your RBR20 router. You won't benefit from some of the extra power the RBS50 has over the RBR20. But you will benefit from the 6 antennas for better wifi coverage, and the extra LAN inputs on the back, for any hardwire devices you need to attach.
