No but kind of yes, there are partisan elections and non partisan elections. The Hatch Act (which applies to every federal employee including a letter carrier) states they cannot be involved in any partisan elections. Which currently means almost every election now.
Non partisan elections used to be much more common in the past, but the major parties over the years (mostly Republicans) pushed it to where there are very few non partisan elections. Even school committee seat elections in my town are partisan, and because of that my local letter carrier couldn’t participate even with their massive involvement in the community.

Wait, do you mean the postal workers can’t campaign for someone or they can’t vote? Where is the line between participating and influencing?
Also I see endorsements all the time, are none of those endorsers federal employees?
