No, you can do this just fine with a simple join.

BEGIN;

CREATE TABLE ta (id int PRIMARY KEY, d date, t text);
CREATE TABLE tb (id int PRIMARY KEY, d date, t text);

INSERT INTO ta
SELECT 100+n, '2001-01-01'::date + n, 'entry ' || n
FROM generate_series(1,19) n;

INSERT INTO tb
SELECT 200+n, '2001-01-01'::date + n, 'entry ' || n
FROM generate_series(1,19) n;

SELECT ta.id AS id_a, tb.id AS id_b, ta.d, ta.t
FROM ta JOIN tb USING (d,t);

ROLLBACK;

If the fields were named differently you'd need something like:  FROM ta JOIN tb ON (ta.d1, ta.t1) = (tb.d2, tb.t2)

I think I read into the question too much.  If you want to find matching
rows then ( ROW(alias_1.*) = ROW(alias_2.*) ) will work (and you do not even
have to specify the columns explicitly).

Read this for details.  Note that if any of the columns can be NULL you need
to be especially careful.

I was thinking that you wanted to know which specific columns matched even
if the row as a whole did not.
