I'm using Osmosis to extract data from a planet file (using the --bp task). It can also extract several files at once, like this: osmosis --rx planet.osm --tee 2 --bp file=country1.poly --wx country1.osm --bp file=country2.poly --wx contry2.osm If the local database you're talking about is Osmosis-generated then simply replace the --rx by the appropriate task to read from the data base. If your local database is osm2pgsql-generated then you can have PostGIS create extracts but only as partial databases or shapefiles, never as true OSM files because osm2pgsql is "lossy".
