Machines with advanced power management features can be
configured to "go to sleep", and "wake up" on certain kinds

This is a function of the machine's BIOS.

Wouldn't the machine have to be on to listen to the modem ring?
You might find (or build) a smart answering-machine kind of device
that could do this.
Let me know what you learn.
