Can you add two columns to the table creation definition, one with a
default current timestamp, the second to be updated with current time in
an on update trigger. Then perhaps you could do something like
SELECT
min(new_insert_timestamp_column),
max(new_update_timestamp_column) FROM your_table

Well, in certain filesystems you can have the birth time
(like ufs2) stored in the inode struct.
So you find the file name in your $PGDATA/base directory
using the oid of your table (in pg_class),
and then you open that file with stat (2) or utimes (2) (or
from perl) to read creation data.
