I am a bit of a novice.  I am dealing with meta data, descriptions of
the Bureau of Labor Statistics database. BLS data is identified by a
series code (16 chars long) but the series format is different for
each data group)

I need to extract from an SQL table the names of other SQL tables and
reference them in a second query to build the proper series_id code:

I haven't tried this, I assume it can't be done:

select a_format  from (select table_id from table_id_list where
prefix_code = 'MyPrefix_code');

Is this beyond SQL?  Is there a better solution?
