In what context? In plpgsql, you can nest if's pretty normally:
create function f() returns int4 as '
begin
if (1=1) then
if (1=0) then
raise exception ''1=0'';
else
raise notice ''1!=0'';
end if;
else
raise exception ''1!=1'';
end if;
return 0;
end;' language 'plpgsql';

If code or lecture must always be unique, then use a unique
constraint. If you can have duplicate codes if and only
if the lecture is the same and you can have duplicate lectures
if and only if the code is the same, you'll probably need
to do a before insert/update trigger that checks for you
(and you'll need to lock the table i think so that you
can't have two transactions inserting inconsistant data
that the other can't see due to it not being committed)
