You can do the reverse with -R instead of -L
which would mean you do -R 5432:localhost:5432
and can connect on your home-pc to local port 5432 and will be connected to the machine from the office you ssh'd out on the port 5432.
so, you should be able to do it this way if it's a stable internet connection and you are not trying to do any mischief!
