I would like to make international wireless phone calls from the U.S. to
Europe using at&t prepaid "pay as you go unlimited" and a voip-provider
offering an at&t mobile phone access number.
Is this possible ?

No- no VoIP provider offers AT&T mobile phone access numbers.

The closest you could probably get is to see if T-Mobile offers "MyFaves"
plans on FlexPay. Flexpay is a no-contract monthly plan, and MyFaves
allows you unlimited calls to any five telephone numbers regardless of who
the provider is. You could just make your VoIP access number one of your
five favorites.

Alternatively (although it's "against the rules") if you have a 3G Windows
Mobile phone or high-end smartphone like a Nokia N-series that runs VoIP
apps like Skype, you could get a $20 unlimited MEdia Net data plan on AT&T
prepaid and use a Skype (or other VoIP) client directly on the smartphone.

That won't work for him because ATT doesn't trust him to postpay his phone
bill so there's no data plan or smartphone for him to use.

AT&T recently started offering a $19.99/month (actually 30 days) unlimited
data plan for prepaid users. Technically it's not allowed on data cards or
smartphones, but again, since GSM accounts are SIM-based rather than ESN
(device)-based, moving the prepaid SIM into any AT&T (or unlocked)
smartphone gives the smartphone the unlimited data plan.
