Use the Document.newPosition(element, offset) method, where element is your Paragraph object and offset is 0.
For example:
var newParagraph = body.appendParagraph("some text");
var paragraphPosition = doc.newPosition(newParagraph, 0);

Put the cursor in the paragraph. It's not necessary to select the whole thing. In fact, you shouldn't "select" anything.
Use the right-align tool. Either the right-align button the menu bar, the menu (
Format > Align > Right), or the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+R).See my before and after screen shots below.
