I'm just going to assume you're referring to a T1-based SS7 IMT, which 
you have, for some reason, decided to term a PRI.

It is not, in fact, a PRI;  a PRI is an ISDN connection that uses ITU-T 
Q.931/921 signaling, not SS7.

If it is, in fact, an SS7 IMT, the answer is that no, the Cisco AS* 
series does not provide ISUP or any other SS7 features except certain 
stubs.  You need a real SS7 gateway.
