Right, write your own function for that, for example:
test=# CREATE TABLE token (id int, id_doc int, token text, position int);
CREATE TABLE
test=*# create function get_pos(int) returns int as $$
declare ret int;
begin
select into ret position+1 from token where id=$1;
return ret;
end;
$$language plpgsql immutable;
CREATE FUNCTION
test=*# CREATE INDEX token_position_func ON token (get_pos(position));
CREATE INDEX
