I guess "IP datagram" is then the equivalent of "IP packet" ?

Then no, I don't think (lib)curl can ever guarantee that they will be in the
same packet (although I guess that with the Nagle algorithm and things, they
might just end up like that anyway), but I don't think why they shouldn't be
at least in two following packets. libcurl doesn't bother (much) about IP
level details at all, it uses TCP (and UDP in one case) and leave the rest to
the TCP/IP stack of your system.

And again: pipelining is not at all possible with the command line client,
you'll need to use libcurl and write your own application for it.
