Sure, no problem at all..

Get yourself a 'Fritz!Card PCI' - also marketed by BT themselves as a 'BT 
Speedway ISDN' adapter - these seem to be the most cheap and supported of 
low-end ISDN2 adapters.

chan_capi will deal with things like both B-channels so you can happily 
receive two calls on the same number, and deal with MSNs (Multiple Subscriber 
Numbers) gracefully since these are more likely on UK ISDN2e service than 
true DDIs.
