Not directly, but PLPGSQL-language functions cache plans for their
contained queries, so you can get the effect if you can push your
computation into function calls, triggers, etc.
Also, the backend's SPI interface for C-coded functions supports cached
plans, but that's got a bit of a steep learning curve ...
