Easily, if they can be acessed via DNSBL/DNSWL qeueries. Any 'new' lookup mechanism will have to be added through a postscreen policy plugin, and that involves new Postfix code. For context: Postscreen decides if a remote SMTP client is allowed to talk to a Postfix SMTP service. The decision is made on (protocol) behavior and reputation, plus a static allow/deny list that is typically populated with information from major provider SPF records.
