Yes, depending upon how that call actually occurs.  Most PBXes will do 
this by calling the modem, waiting for it to pick up the line, and then 
to dial the digits (via DTMF), and then patch the actual fax call through.

Look in 'man hylafax-config' for SHIELDED_DTMF; there's a configuration 
example in there.  A look at the archives should help, too.

The only caveat is to make sure that your modem also supports DTMF digit 
delivery, usually in voice mode according to IS-101 spec (most voice 
modems are this way).
