The phone companies here in New Zealand have that option. You can even 
keep your old landline phone number and have the calls forwarded to 
your mobile, or even a group of mobiles.

There's also the option of plugging a landline phone into your internet 
modem, so those with a fibre or home-4G connection don't need the old 
copper landline wiring coming into the house from the street.

But the reality is that people are making and receiving fewer and fewer 
actual phone calls these days. Most communication on mobile phones is 
via various messaging apps, TXTing, and less so on phones via email.
