No. For PCM modems (K56flex/X2/V.90) to work one end MUST have a digital
line - that means ISDN or CT1. With POTS on both ends 22.6K is still the
maximum speed.

This isn't really complete. Whatever end is to be the server - that is
receiving the call and SENDING data at V.90 speeds - needs to be fed
with a digital line. That means you need something like a PM-3 with an
ISDN PRI or CT1. Or a 3Com Courier I-Modem with a BRI. Etc.
Splitting a channel off of a CT1 doesn't seem to do any good, unless the
split is producing a CT1 with only one channel. And that'd be a waste
considering the HW needed to terminate it for PCM - like a PM-3.
