While that’s certainly possible in a routed network (and even then can be overridden with the “do not fragment” bit), it won’t happen in a LAN or self-contained instrument set-up.  These days, even routed networks tend to deliver anything less than a 1500 byte packet as a single entity.  With fiber backbones and high-speed LANs, it is more work for a router to fragment a packet then to simply pass it on.  The days of 480 byte packets pretty much went away with dial-up modems.
