I think what Konstantin is really talking about is pipelining
(i.e. sending multiple queries without waiting for the results
inbetween, thereby reducing latency), and that is actually supported by
postgres. Some drivers make fairly extensive use of it (e.g. the pgjdbc
driver).
As for libpq: No, that's currently not supported. There is a patch that
I hope to get into v13 however: https://commitfest.postgresql.org/20/1317
