Yes, this is done using SECMOD_OpenUserDB, see: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/NSS/PKCS11_Functions#SECMOD_OpenUserDB also there's info here: https://groups.google.com/g/mozilla.dev.tech.crypto/c/Xz6Emfcue0E We should document that, as mentioned in the link above, the NSS find functions will find certs in all the opened databases. As this would all be under one application which is linked against libpq and passing in different values for ssl_database for different connections, this doesn't seem like it's really that much of an issue.
