      Is it possible to curve a complex extrusion like the one in this link.

      I need to be able to represent a complex design that will be cut out of a thin substrate that can bend around the curve of a structure.

      I just chose this cnc file at random, so sorry for the unicorn.

        Most likely it could be done with either CLF Shapebender or with Caul's Flowify extension. Both are available in the Plugin store. I don't know what size your model is but I would recommend scaling up a fair amount before trying to bend it.

          If it's just a simple Bend you can also use Fredo Scale!
