I want to store all attachments (media) in folders named with each post title.
Example: /wp-content/uploads/my-post-about-stuff/
The folder should contain all media attached to that post.
Is that possible?

post_idFollow the instructions in the comments, and this code can be adapted to organize the uploads folder by post_name (aka: slug), post_author, post_id or media type.

The plugin Custom Upload Dir has this capability:
[with] Custom Upload Dir [...] you can construct paths from variables like post title, category, post author, post date and many more.

The first answer is quite good. I've noticed a PHP empty index notice when uploading WP plugins. To fix this replace:
$the_post = get_post($_REQUEST['post_id']);
$customdir = '/' . $the_post->post_name;
With
//check if post id is defined
if( isset($_REQUEST['post_id']) ) {
$the_post = get_post($_REQUEST['post_id']);
$customdir = '/' . $the_post->post_name;
}
else {
$customdir = '';
}
For our internal webpage, we used the code from here and made it use the top level parent if the upload is from a page. Since it is internal, we didn't care about the username being visible. This allowed us to break up the uploads by something close to departments.
function wpse_25894_custom_upload_dir( $path ) {
/*
* Determine if uploading from inside a page - if not, use the username
*/
if ( ( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], 'wp-admin/upload' ) !== false ) ||
( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], 'wp-admin/media-new' ) !== false ) )

$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$customdir = '/' . $current_user->user_login;
} else {
$post = get_post( $_REQUEST['post_id'] );
/*
* If there is a parent page, then get the hierarchy array,
* reverse it and use the first one to get the top level parent
*/
if ( $post->post_parent ) {
$parent = array_reverse( get_post_ancestors( $post->ID ) );
$first_parent = get_page( $parent[0] );
$customdir = '/' . $first_parent->post_name;
}
/*
* Check if it is not a page (post or attachment page)
* If it is, then use the username
*/
elseif (strcmp ( 'page', $page->type ) == false ) {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$customdir = '/' . $current_user->user_login;
}
/*
* Otherwise it is a top level parent page and just use the page name
*/
else {
$the_post = get_post( $_REQUEST['post_id'] );
$customdir = '/' . $the_post->post_name;
}
}
// Format the variables into a useable path
$path['path'] = str_replace( $path['subdir'], '', $path['path'] ); // Remove default subdir (year/month)
