In Databricks it is possible to install Python (but not Scala) libraries from within notebook, into notebook's local scope, e.g.:

!pip install 'library-name'

or

dbutils.library.installPyPI("library-name")

Is something similar possible with Synapse?

    Not currently no. Python libraries can be added via a requirements.txt (output from a pip freeze) at the Spark pool level. We will add more options in the future.
