Curl requires OpenSSL to do client requests that use SSL, yes. It can of
course communicate with a remote SSL server of any brand.

I'm not sure I follow you here. Are you refering to installing a php library
that has curl and SSL enabled? In that case, yes, all servers that are served
with the same web daemon will get curl/ssl support.

If you refer to something else, then I'm afraid I need a rephrase or help
from someone on the list!
