 Is there a way to divert incoming calls on DAHDI T1 channels so telco gets

I'm no PRI expert, but I do remember from my time working with the T1
interface cards that two B-channel transfers did something like this.

Digium has documentation on that here:

If that doesn't help, and you have a Digium card; you might call
Digium tech support to ask about it.

Don Kelly adds:
TBCT doesn't actually divert, but it will transfer a call. The
difference, which may not matter to you, is that one of the channels must be
answered by Asterisk (unless something has changed). 

A call comes in, you decide you want to divert it--you place an outbound
call on another channel. You must either answer the incoming call or wait
for the outgoing call to answer before completing the TBCT.

Another quirk to be aware of: You may wish to present the caller's number to
the called party as caller ID. Some carriers will not permit this.

Also, the op referred to T1 channels. TBCT works on PRI, not simple T1.

Additionally, most providers charge for TBCT provisioning, so you would want to 
make certain that it is the correct way to get the functionality you are after.
