While the usb net and usb host drivers are likely available in kernel source, its worth pointing out that they aren't shipped in most phones, so a new kernel (probably not just module) will need to be compiled. Something will likely also be needed in sub-android linux- level userspace to set it up.
Also most current phones don't supply usb bus power, so custom cabling and another power source may be needed.
