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"...
