Yes, you can. But only before or after(*) a supposed transfer. Curl is used
for file transfers and doing things with it that doesn't involve data being
transfered isn't its main target.
Check out the -Q/--quote command in the man page.
(*) = the after-transfer operation was added in curl 6.4 and didn't exist
previously
