Is it possible in java to obtain ConcreetClass.class from interface reference ISomeInterface. I would like to avoid 'instance of' keyword.
On other words, is there: 

ISomeInterface intRef = new ConcreetClass();
Class realization = intRef.getRealizationClass();
realization == ConcreetClass.class; // true

If java doesn't support this operation. Could you recommend me a way to deal with it?

You should be able to get the specific class of any object using the getClass() method.

getClass returns the class of the instance.

Class<? extends ISomeInterface> realization = intRef.getClass();
System.out.println(ConcreetClass.class.equals(realization)); //true
