Not internally. It's possible in some situations to split queries up
across multiple nodes using add-on software. pgpool-II, available at
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pgpool/ provides an implementation of
distributed queries if your table has a type of key such that you split
across it, but it's relatively immature software and you would have to
look at it very carefully to see if that parallel query implementation
could fit your needs.
