If you can think of it, you can do it ;)

PostGIS is only an extension of PostgreSQL. You might want to check how roles 
and users work on PostgreSQL: 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/user-manag.html

Anyway, try not to create a new thread every time you have a new question of 
the same topic. It makes it difficult to follow.
