No.

CURL_READFUNC_PAUSE is usually only useful when using the multi interface,
since curl_multi_perform always returns immediately no matter if the handles
are paused or not. But, you can pause a handle when using the easy interface if
you want to, but about the only way to unpause it will be from the progress
callback.
