Sure. Here's an example:

test=> CREATE TABLE statename     (    code CHAR(2) PRIMARY KEY,
test(>                     name CHAR(30)
test(>                 );
CREATE
test=> INSERT INTO statename VALUES ('AL', 'Alabama');
INSERT 18934 1

test=> CREATE TABLE customer     (
test(>                 customer_id INTEGER,
test(>                 name CHAR(30),
test(>                 telephone CHAR(20),
test(>                 street CHAR(40),
test(>                 city CHAR(25),
test(>                 state CHAR(2) REFERENCES statename,
test(>                 zipcode CHAR(10),
test(>                 country CHAR(20)
test(>                 );
CREATE
