If you have four pstn telephone numbers (eg, 444-1212, 444-1213,
444-1214, and 444-1215) from your telco, then call the telco and have
them implement call forwarding on each of the four lines. You might also
verify they provide a "call forwarding on busy" function for those lines.
After they have implemented it, put an analog phone on line 444-1212 and
implement "call forwarding on busy" using whatever codes are appropriate
(*90 here), forwarding calls to 444-1213. Do the same for 444-1213 and
444-1214.
Now when 444-1212 is busy, the next incoming call goes to 444-1213. When
444-1213 is busy, the next call goes to 444-1214, etc.

Two ways to accomplish the objective.
1. ask the telco about four lines in a trunk group (or sometimes
referred to as a rotary hunt group).
2. Subscribe to call forwarding on each line, and program each line for
"call forward on busy" to the next line of the four. It will accomplish
the same thing as the trunk group approach above.
