So, is there a way that I can do this inside of one RPM, where I

Nope. Well you can try invoking rpm -Uvh within %post, and rpm -
evh within %preun,
adding --nodeps to install contained *.rpm files, but that cure
may make you wish for tastier
rocks instead.
A long time ago, you added "manifest" capability to RPM. If that's
still
present, it might do what is being asked for. It's probably no better
than your --anaconda suggestion, though.
Yes, I forgot about manifests.
Adding --noorder (or equivalently --nodeps which implies --noorder)
would also be needed.
Anyways a manifest is just a list of package file paths, easily
generated by
ls -1 /path/to/rpmfiles/*.rpm > manifest
and then installing with
rpm -Uvh manifest
Check that manifest is okay with
rpm -qp manifest
