A router is normally used to split a broadband connection (250k to 1,500k or more). The only signal available at an analog phone jack that a computer can use directly is a dial-up connection of 28 to 56k.

I recently purchased a laptop, and I already have a desktop computer that is connected to the internet via a modem, which is in the telephone jack. If I connected a Modular Adapter to the telephone jack, enabling me to connect the laptop and desktop computer to the same jack, would it be OK for me to access the Internet via my laptop that way, as opposed to using a router?
Nope.
