I'm sorry, but no, and this is intentional. The whatsap account is tied
to a real phone number. I'm unsure if it can be associated to a land
line, but I think not.
Once the account is created, the SIM can be removed and it will continue >working on that phone for an undetermined time.
Some other messaging apps don't have this requirement, can use an alias.

You only need a phone number which can receive a phone call.
It doesn't have to be a cell phone. If the phone can't
receive a SMS, the code ist spoken und you have to
enter the code manually in the cell phone or tablet
with Whatsapp installed.

Does that include phone calls, talking? I suspect not. She won't text anyone. I only do it** because some people I know demand it, and she
doesn't even have that incentive.
I've recently figured a 2-step process for texting people from my PC
emai program. I'm sure you know all this but for others, I posted
details earlier. (Got no replies, however.)

Telegram does have phone calls, I just looked. I see it has my username
and phone number. I suspect the phone number is not a hard requirement,
that I created the account initially without a phone number, then added
it because it is useful. I seem to recall that I created the account on
a computer.
Whether it accepts to do phone calls with only an user id, no number, I
do not know. Possibly..
Signal also has phone calls, but works with a phone number only, I think.
Mind: it is phone calls inside the application. Some of the tools do
video calls (by default?).
You can also use "Google Chat". No calls. But Google Meet has video
calls. I don't know if it can do just voice calls.

I will have a look.
