No, as with views, a USING() clause is executed as the caller not the
owner of the relation.  Security Definer functions can be used to
execute actions in the policy as another user.

Note that RLS won't be applied for the table owner either (unless the
relation has 'FORCE RLS' enabled for it), so you don't have to have
functions which are run as superuser to use the approach Joe
recommended.

Thanks!
