libcurl itself provdes no particular means to do that, no.
You can however use callbacks that allow you to change and fiddle with the
sockets layer and then you're mostly limited by your imagination.
But... most protocols libcurl speaks are TCP based and when you communicate
with TCP you need to get IP packets back in order to complete the handshake
etc and if you fake your IP in outgoing packets you won't get the packets back
and then you can't continue the TCP stream!
