Yes. It's called voip and it's how the majority of business landlines now work.
I'd have thought consumer options are available.

My parents land line is shite - it’s really crackly
Open a voice fault with BT. If you can hear the crackling then the engineer can too and that is usually easy to get fixed. Shouldn't cost you anything providing you can hear the crackle from the internal socket of the NTE5 (see https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:BT_NTE5.JPG).
If the Internet is over the phone line (ADSL/VDSL/FTTC) then fixing a voice fault is likely to improve the Internet speed and reliability too.

Virgin have their landlines coming through the internet (if you're on cable).
If the internet is coming through the landline you probably want to have that sorted anyway.

Random q.
My parents land line is shite - it’s really crackly, and mobile reception is also crap. Is there a way of getting an internet based land line? Or does that not exist?
