No, but you can use 7.4's pg_dumpall against your 7.3 database. This is
generally the recommended way to do an upgrade, btw --- the newer
version's pg_dump is supposed to be able to compensate for cross-version
compatibility issues, but we lack the crystal ball needed to make the
older version's pg_dump do it :-(
