If his "current POTS line number" rings his "current phones," and you port 
the POTS line number to a SIP provider, what would you expect to "ring" 
them?

You could dial his cell phones or any other endpoint.

You could connect the existing phones to your Asterisk server using ATAs 
or channel banks or ???

What is in the best interest of your client? There isn't enough 
information present to offer a reasonable opinion.
