For outbound calls, all you have to do is put all the channels into
one group, ie.

/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf ...

signalling=fxs_ks
group=1
channel=1-4

then dial the group, ie.

/etc/asterisk/extensions.conf ...

exten => _9X.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN:1},60,r)

For incoming calls, however, you will indeed need to ask your telco.
Usually, this would be a divert-when-busy service, ie. if line 1 is
busy, your telco will divert all incoming calls on line 1 to line 2,
if line 2 is busy to line 3 etc etc.
