Is it possible to record outbound analog calls using an X100P?

I was asked if I knew how to record all calls for a shop with 4 analog
phones transparently to the end users.  I thought Asterisk was a good
fit for this and I envisioned using either Digium TDM400Ps or Sangoma
A200s with 4 FXO and 4 FXS modules.  The FXO modules would be connected
to the existing PBX and the FXS modules to the existing analog phones.
Then with a simple dialplan, all inbound and outbound calls could be
recorded by Monitor.

I wanted to mock this up using some X100Ps that I had laying around, but
found that I could only record inbound calls.  I believe that I need an
FXS interface to record outbound analog calls but my past experience is
with T1 interfaces, so I could be mistaken.

Of course you can, if you have 4 FXO and 4 FXS, you could make a
really simple dialplan and record the calls that pass through it,
incoming or outgoing, and the users wouldn't even know that there is a
pbx between them and the PSTN.

You will need a lot of space to keep them all, but you could make a
simple cron job that would erase any recording older then, say, 2
months.

Also, you would have the benefit of having CDR
