In Python, one can use try statement to catch error, error can be stored as
data.

Can plpgsql catch and return error as data or a data table?

I think you're looking for EXCEPTION:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/plpgsql-control-structures.html#PLPGSQL-ERROR-TRAPPING

At the point you've trapped the error, you can then return something based
on the error. You can find a list of exception codes in one of the
appendices:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/errcodes-appendix.html

Yes, as The Fine Manual to be Read says:

	https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/plpgsql-control-structures.html#PLPGSQL-ERROR-TRAPPING

	https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/plpgsql-errors-and-messages.html#PLPGSQL-STATEMENTS-RAISE
