Nope, not possible...it is a limitation of CDMA tech used today...the only way around this that I can think of is maybe setup a Google Voice or similar service and have people call/text that number which forwards to pc instead of phone..or if you have 4g in your area getting a 4g phone would work too.

Otherwise its not possible.
