If you're refering to an IAX channel then, yes, that's the concept behind the 
'qualify=' option. However, there are known weaknesses including that the loss 
of a single ping makes the remote host appear to be down. There is a patch for 
head available at http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=4192 that attempts to make 
peer qualification more useful.

Hope that helps.
