Theoretically yes. No obvious limit other than the number of modems/channels.
In practice, the buffering involved with almost-inevitable connect rate
differences, could make it quite inefficient and hardly worth the effort.

I'd like to see a client side device that will handle *making* more than
2/3 analog calls and multi-linking them together first....
