This is not purely supported by PostgreSQL (as far as I know), you can get results combined if they return the same row type. You can do that either through a UNION ALL or a function like following-

SQL

CREATE FUNCTION test()
  RETURNS SETOF first_table AS
$func$
BEGIN

RETURN QUERY
SELECT * FROM first_table;

RETURN QUERY
SELECT * FROM second_table;   -- has to return same rowtype as first_table

END
