It is possible via 3rd party tools like pg_probackup and pgbackrest.
pgbackrest does *not* support PITR recovery of individual databases into
*new* database names in the same cluster (so that the end user can have both
the current database and an old version at the same time).
No, nothing does as PG doesn't support it as we have one WAL stream for
the entire cluster.

Right.  Making WAL files specific to a database should be high on the list of priorities.

Generally speaking, I discourage having lots of databases under one PG
cluster for exactly these kinds of reasons.

It's just two... :)

   PG's individual clusters are relatively lightweight, after all.

But require a new port, and Enterprises have Processes that must be followed.
