Yes. Do you think there is a problem with doing so?

I'm pretty sure that Requests will use either urllib or urllib2,
depending on what is available on the server.

No, it doesn't. It gets its quote() function from urllib always.

I would like to use
whatever Requests is currently using, rather than import the other.
Can I tell which library Requests is currently using and use that?

The only thing I can think that you are talking about is the difference between Python 2 and Python 3. In Python 2, it's urllib.quote() and in Python 3, it's urllib.parse.quote(), but that's a Python-version issue, not something to do with requests, per se. requests does have a compatibility layer, internally, that pastes over those issues, but I don't think that is intended to be a stable public API that you should rely on. You should handle that kind of switch yourself if you care about compatibility across both versions of Python.
