Does not seem to do what the GP asked, from the docs:

$request_time
request processing time in seconds with a milliseconds resolution
(1.3.9, 1.2.6); time elapsed since the first bytes were read from the client
"request time" would imply the time (with our without parsing) of the
actual HTTTP request, imho.

In reality $request_time accounts for the complete request, response and
logging, so yes, you are right.
While $request_time is indeed accounts for complete request time
when used in logs, it can be accessed (and saved) at some
intermediate point.  E.g., by using something like

     set $header_time $request_time;

one may save time since 1st bytes were read from a client till
rewrite rule processing.  This is basically identical to "time
necessary to read all the packets of a particular HTTP query" that
was asked (at least as long you don't try to count reading a
request body).

Thanks for explainig this, seems quite useful!
