As documented in the tcp_table manpage, the client sends a request,
and the server sends one reply.
As with LDAP and *SQL, Postfix provides the client, you provide
the server.
The client "get" request format is:
get SPACE key NEWLINE
The server reply format is one of:
500 SPACE text NEWLINE
400 SPACE text NEWLINE
200 SPACE text NEWLINE
The text is encoded.

The tcp_table manpage does not mention filters, and therefore
such functionality does not exist.
