There's no reason for the install process to connect to the internet.
If you have the source tarball and all the compile tools, or if you have
all the necessary binary packages, then you should have no trouble
setting it up at all.

Well you have not said what OS you are installing on, or what you intend
to do with Postgres. Given that, assuming you have a development
environment set up, you could build from the source. There is still the
problem of getting the source downloaded and transferred to the internal
network.

what operating system?  if its a RPM based linux like RHEL, CentOS,
Fedora, just download the RPMs and install them from a local location
(nfs mount, or even a usb stick).   Pretty sure you can do the same with
the deb files for a debian/ubuntu system
