But I have some free ISDN and analog ports in both PBXs. Is it possible to use Asterisk on each side with some ISDN or analog card to connect to each PBX and enable users to call through the "asterisk shortcut"?

Probably yes. You should be able to connect Asterisk to
the HiPath using a PRI card.

What should I look for in documentation?

You need to read the manual of your HiPath to find out how
to configure the routing and if it supports PRI.
