Can you run a analog card with a standard PRI?

I have a remote G450 and need to add analog lines to it. Currently there is only one DS1 card with a active circuit. Can this circuit somehow be converted by the carrier into a analog circuit?
 
I believe you need to ask your circuit provider this question, but why would you even want to do this in the 1st place?
 
I'm trying to find a "fast" solution. We need to add several analog phones in a short time.
 
What exactly are you trying to do? If you are trying to hook up an analog device like a fax or modem, you would install an analog station card mm711 or mm716. When those stations make or receive calls from the PSTN, those calls will be carried by your DS1 circuit just like the DS1 carries the calls from your digital or IP stations.

That's what I'm trying to do. What type of DS1 circuit do I need for a MM711?
 
DS1 connects your gateway to the PSTN
Station cards or IP connects your gateway to phones, fax, modems.

The gateway is the switching mechanism between your inside world and the outside world. If you are trying to add some faxes or analog devices, you by an mm711 and that gives you 8 ports to add 8 analog devices. External calls will ride the same existing DS1 that all of your other devices ride on.

stay away from the ds1 card you only need a mm711 card as already stated! this will allow you to use analog phones, modems or fax machines
