Camels, Llamas, Alpacas, Vicunas, Guanacos, and a couple other animals are all related. They are all camelids, like horses and donkeys are both equines.
Yes, alpacas are in the camelid family. Alpacas share this family with camels and llamas also. Alpacas have a split lip, two toes, and no upper teeth, which perhaps qualifies them to be in the camelid classification.
There are six camelids - Old World camelids are the dromedary (one-humped camel) and the Bactrian (two-humped camel). New World camelids are the llama, alpaca, guanaco, and vicuna. So yes, they are related.

Llamas are a species. The other similar camelid species are vicunas, guanacos and alpacas. Llamas and Guanacos are genus Llama Vicunas and alpacas have been placed in the genus Vicugna
Alpacas are from South America
Guanacos, Alpacas, surprisingly camels there classified in camelid family, hmm that's all I can think of right now.
Alpacas were never known to be wild animals. They are a domesticated form of a South American camelid. While herds of them are kept all over South America, the most commonly referred to alpacas are the ones in Peru. Now, alpacas have been exported to many countries around the world.
Camelids are members of the biological family Camelidae, the only living family in the suborder Tylopoda. Camels, dromedaries, llamas, alpacas, vicuñas, and guanacos are in this group.
It doesn't, not normally. The normal erythrocyte of any camelid (camels, llamas, alpacas) is oval-shaped with no nucleus. Birds have nucleated, oval-shaped RBCs. Perhaps that is what you are thinking of.
Camels (Dromedary and Bactran), alpacas, guanacos and vicuñas. All are a part of the Camelid family. The first are the Old World camelids and the last three, including the llama itself, are New World camelids.
llamas are classified as a "camelid", and yes, that means they are related to camels, alpacas and whatever else fits the general profile of long bottom teeth, lots of hair, tidy eater, conservative on water and the ability to spit long distances with rifle-like accuracy.
Some collective nouns for alpacas are an inflation of alpacas, others are a flock or a herd of alpacas.
