Short answer: yes. Slightly longer answer: If you need to ask this quetion then you should really talk to someone about network programming but this is the wrong list. If you are asking if PostgreSQL already does UDP then the answer is no. You need to write a server program that talks UDP in one direction and TCP to PostgreSQL in the other direction.
