​Upgrade your version and make use of the LATERAL feature.

Use a CTE and move the function call to the select list - then explode the
result in the main query.

Basically:

WITH func_cte AS (
SELECT func_call(tbl)
FROM tbl
)​

​SELECT (func_call).*
FROM func_cte;
​
​The parens are required to make the parser see func_call as a column name
instead of a table name.​
