Yes

The list_nth(query->rtable, query->resultRelation) will give you a
RangeTblEntry which has a property called relid, which is the
Relation's OID as per pg_class.oid.

If you want the relation name from the OID then you'll need something
like get_rel_name().

You'll probably also want to check the query->commandType to ensure
the command is one that will actually have a valid resultRelation.
