This is called an Analog DID Trunk.  Yes, Asterisk supports it.
You can have inbound calls only on this type of line.  Also, it
does not support CallerID.

The carrier's CO acts like a POTS analog handset.  When a call comes
in it simulates offhook status (puts a load on the line) and dials
into your PBX (Asterisk), by sending DTMF.
