Possible:  yes.   Simple:  no.

Slackware 3.5 does not have the sis900 module (probably
because that card wasn't around when Slack35 was made).
It is, however, available in Slackware 7.1  The best way 
to deal with this may be to replace the zimage kernel 
(on your DOS partition) with the bare.i bzimage from
Slackware 7.1.  You will need to edit boot.bat to change 
zimage to bzimage.

When you change a kernel like this, all of your old modules 
will fail (perhaps putting error messages on the screen).  
You will then need to replace those modules with new ones 
from Slackware 7.1 (put them in /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc).

Slackware 7.1 has some isdn modules which may do what you 
need.  Apparently there is an ISDN HOWTO around (but I
couldn't find it in the Slackware 7.1 HOWTO collection).  
You might get some useful answers if you google for:  
isdn4linux
