Of course.

Something like this would be nice:

if (aspsms available)
  send_via_aspsms
else
  send_via_attached_gsm

That's easy to script. Start with the cheapest possibility and go over to more expensive ones if needed.
1st: A provider in the internet
2nd: A solution over normal phone lines (like the swisscom number)
3rd: GSM (GSM card, attached cellular...)

2nd and 3rd may be swapped - depending on the price. If a GSM-Solution is less expensive you can leave the Swisscom service out anyway.

I have seen (and am using) triband-cards (GSM, EDGE, GPRS...) for PCMCIA-Slots (Option Globetrotter, Merlin...). They are not only capable to send SMS but they can also establish a wireless internet link nearly everywhere in the world. If those are existing for PCI too your problem should be easy to solve. Or you consider adding a PCMCIA-Slot to the server; depends on the price, of course.
