Complicated. See below.

Why?

Keeping track of those packages will allow easily to:

  - memorize what your project needs
  - deploy those packages on other machines
  - suppress them

You can for example maintain a plain file containing only their names:
my_project_rpms.txt

Then install by using only:

  dnf install $(< my_project_rpms.txt)

and remove with:

  dnf remove $(< my_project_rpms.txt)
  
No need IMO of a special option to dnf for that.
