instead of whole fat, will it curdle?

I've only grilled whole-fat yogurt-marinated chicken without a problem. I say,

go for the good stuff!

That recipe looks wonderful!

 
It's just brushed on the salmon and grilled, so there shouldn't be a curdling problem.

Won't be quite as 'rich' tasting, though.

 
I've never used whole-fat yogurt for tandoori, just nonfat, and I've never had a problem
