1) Can I use a function that will return a string in a where clause like bellow?

select *
from table
where my_function_making_where()
         and another_field = 'another_think'

Probably. What have you tried? What does the documentation say? If you're having trouble with a specific function, please provide the code and hopefully we can work it out.

2) Can I use a function that will return a string to return the list of columns that I want to show like below?

select my_function_making_list_of_columns()
from table
where field_test = 'mydatum'

Probably not. What have you tried? What does the documentation say?

A couple of minutes in psql would probably be faster than sending an email to the list.
