You can do something like this:
test=# create table tab1 (id serial, name text);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "tab1_id_seq" for serial column "tab1.id"
CREATE TABLE
test=*# insert into tab1 values(default, 'andreas');
INSERT 0 1
test=*# insert into tab1 values(default, 'anja');
INSERT 0 1
test=*# create table tab2(id serial, name text);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "tab2_id_seq" for serial column "tab2.id"
CREATE TABLE
test=*# insert into tab2 (name) select name from tab1;
INSERT 0 2
