It is not possible... vacuum cannot be executed inside a function or
transaction.

See de sample:

-- Using function
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fc_vacuum(TEXT) RETURNS VOID AS
$$
BEGIN
EXECUTE 'VACUUM '||$1;
RETURN;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;

postgres(at)bdteste=# select fc_vacuum('foo');
ERROR: VACUUM cannot be executed from a function
CONTEXT: SQL statement "VACUUM foo"
PL/pgSQL function "fc_vacuum" line 2 at execute statement

-- Using transaction
postgres(at)bdteste=# begin;
BEGIN
postgres(at)bdteste=# VACUUM foo;
ERROR: VACUUM cannot run inside a transaction block
