There is no support for that.  I guess somebody could write an extension PL/net,
and it looks like somebody already has: https://github.com/witblitz/pldotnet.
That code ptobably won't work with recent PostgreSQL releases, but it could be
a basis for you to work upon.

My big question for me is: Why on earth would you want to run .NET code inside a
database?  Why not run it on the client?
