You can do this with adapters called HomePNA adapters.
Here is a Yahoo Article

and here is one from HomePNA .org

You can get adapters from any of the major mfgs to convert your phone jacks into a network. You can't just connect directly you will need adapters.

Here are some hardware ideas.

It is an easy way to go and does work. You can also use your power line for the network using Power Line adapters. These are slower than pure ethernet networks but do offer a way to use existing lines for transmission of data.
