I dunno.  I imagine if you have a "section" of a table in different
storage than other sections, you created a tablespace and moved the
partition holding that section there.  Otherwise, how do you prevent the
tuples from moving to other "sections"?  (We don't really have a concept
of "sections" of a table.)
