Can we copy data from 1 text file to 2 postgresql tables?
The SQL COPY command itself has no provision for that. But you can specify PROGRAM as input. The manual:


  When PROGRAM is specified, the server executes the given command and
  reads from the standard output of the program, or writes to the
  standard input of the program. The command must be specified from the
  viewpoint of the server, and be executable by the PostgreSQL user.


Then, assuming you are on a Linux system, you can COPY the first 10 lines with:

COPY tbl1 FROM PROGRAM 'head -n10 /path/to/file/my.csv';


To COPY the rest, starting with line 11:

COPY tbl2 FROM PROGRAM 'sed -n 11,\$p /path/to/file/my.csv';


Or, to COPY without comments with leading # / only comments (asked in comment):

COPY tbl3 FROM PROGRAM 'awk ''!/^#/'' /path/to/file/my.csv';
COPY tbl4 FROM PROGRAM 'awk ''/#/ { sub(/^#/, ""); print }'' /path/to/file/my.csv';


The last command removes the leading # from comments (but not additional whitespace).

Consult the man page or your preferred online source about the shell commands head, sed and awk ...

As always, you need the necessary privileges. Consider the psql meta command \copy if you are not superuser nor member of the pg_execute_server_program role.
