No, and no.  If you could use them as identifiers then they wouldn't
be reserved words, would they?

Some keywords are "more reserved" than others in the Postgres parser;
see the distinction between ColId and ColLabel in gram.y if you want
the details.  AFAICT, "CALL" is not a keyword at all in Postgres.
