Remember networks this computer has joined

I desire to change a WiFi setting on a batch of MacBooks, all running OS X 10.9.3. Specifically, I want to check/enable "Remember networks this computer has joined".

Is this possible with CasperSuite, version 9.32?

I have found many commands to reconfigure network settings, but I have not found this specific option.

Take a look at this thread. CasperSally mentions the /usr/libexec/airportd prefs command which lets you set the "RememberRecentNetworks" setting.

Specifically, you can do this by the following:

sudo /usr/libexec/airportd prefs RememberRecentNetworks=YES

The above only works for Wi-Fi of course, but I imaging you weren't asking about this for any Ethernet connection.
