that's no problem:

test=# create schema demo1;
CREATE SCHEMA
test=*# create schema demo2;
CREATE SCHEMA
test=*# create table master_table(id int primary key);
CREATE TABLE
test=*# create table demo1.demo_table(id int primary key, master_id int
references public.master_table);
CREATE TABLE
test=*# create table demo2.demo_table(id int primary key, master_id int
references public.master_table);
CREATE TABLE
