It's possible, show your code

I have a demo which does exactly this. You can take a look at it, and disect it for your own purposes
http://sourceforge.net/projects/internetdemos
"HTTP Multi File Downloader"

Looks nice, but it wont compile:

[DCC Error] MultiFileDownloaderMain.pas(348): E2009 Incompatible types: 'Parameter lists differ'
[DCC Error] MultiFileDownloaderMain.pas(349): E2009 Incompatible types: 'Parameter lists differ'
[DCC Error] MultiFileDownloader.dpr(5): F2063 Could not compile used unit 'MultiFileDownloaderMain.pas'

line:
HTTPClientInsideAThread.OnWorkBegin := HTTPClientInsideThreadWorkBegin;

Different component versions?

I take it then, that you are using Indy 10
I'll see if I have time to can recompile it with Indy 10 and I'll post the code here
or you can do it yourself
basically, throw a TidHTTP on a blank form, double click on the OnWorkBegin, OnWork and OnWorkEnd events
copy the parameters in the event headers
(AProcess, ... etc)
and replace the ones in my unit with those
or just give me a day and I'll try to find time to do a Delphi 10 demo :-)
