Unfortunately not. Quicksilver does not give telephone numbers a special
'type', unlike calculator text (when you type "=" Quicksilver knows it's a
special type).
There's been discussion recently of adding a telephone type, which could
give different actions for telephone numbers.
Unfortunately, the next problem is that most telephone actions are services
so not all users would have all the services on their computer — making it
difficult to decide on what action should be default for telephone numbers.

This is certainly an interesting area, and it would be great if Quicksilver
could be a bit cleverer about understanding text, so if you or anyone has
any ideas that'd be awesome!
