Yes, Ekiga is able to place PC-to-phone calls.

There is a provider built-in (diamoncard) or you can use your own.

There is a small list of tested providers in our wiki here (quite
outdated):
http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/List_of_PC_to_phone_providers

PC-to-phone calls is an essential part of the SIP protocol used by Ekiga
(and this is true for H.323 as well, still the H.323 protocol is
nowadays replaced by the SIP protocol)

There is tons of company providing the PC-to-phone service using the SIP
protocol at low rates.
