See the developer todo list
(http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.TODO.html) onto which was
recently added "Add the client IP address and port to
pg_stat_activity"

So in short, not now, but later.

You can do it indirectly by first finding the PID of interest either
from the pg_stat_activity system view or "ps" and then use "netstat
-p" to find the connection associated with that PID.
