I think, the only way is to use PITR and roll the backup forward during
the exact point you want to see.
Probably another way - but really untested and dangerous - would be to
play around with the meta information for each row. But VACUUM makes
sure dead rows are removed very fast, so i think it's not even worth to
try out.
