Can I set my FlyNumber to automatically route calls to different numbers depending on the time of day, like when I'm at the Shediac Farmers Market?

For instance, route calls to a business partner during your regular visits to the Shediac Farmers Market on Sundays. This feature ensures you're always reachable, even when you're out enjoying local produce.
If I use a FlyNumber in Shediac, can I make outgoing calls displaying my business number, even when calling from a personal device?
