Not quite what you asked for but might work for you.
Yes that works but could possibly have some bad consequences with that. Example, someone in your family has an emergency and is taken to the hospital and someone (cop, ER doc, hospital office or whatever) tried to call you, you will never know until you check your voicemail maybe hours later You can use that example filling in the possibilities with many other circumstances of someone trying to contact you in an emergency with a "strangers" (unlisted in your contacts) phone number. Chances may be slim but it's possible.
