You might want to look at the book: "PostGIS In Action" pg 225 has a
function to cut a linestring at point junctions.
Basically, you want to take your two points and construction a line like:
select astext(setsrid(makeline(pnt1, pnt2), 4326));
then get a collection of pieces of myline after we subtract your new
line from it:
select astext(st_difference(myline, setsrid(makeline(pnt1, pnt2), 4326)));
This assumes your data is int SRID:4326, change as appropriate.
I have not tried this but give it a try and see how it works.
