Unless you don't need multiplexing, in which case you should eat your foot

It won't work to just plug the modems
together by their phone jacks.
You still need line voltage or else they won't work.
Yes. But
"better" modems have a "leased line" mode where they don't need
extra voltage. If this fails there is still the way with the 9 V
battery, as already mentioned. With this you only need "ATA" (IIRC)
to initiate a carrier handshake between the modems. Or configure the
modem on the terminal server side to do "auto dial at DTR"...
