The answer is "No", categorically, nor is their documentation correct
in saying that there is a web server running on SIP phone software
(it's only on CCM images.)

However...
A bad hack would be to use "expect" and "telnet" to open a
connection
to the 7960, and activate it's testing mode. With the testing mode,
you can "press" keys on the keypad as if you were standing in front
of the phone. I have dialed phones remotely this way. This is bad,
wrong, ugly, and insecure. It also doesn't take into account if the
user is on the phone already.
I have sent a note into Cisco (through various channels - I have no
idea what the "right" way is) to add such a feature. There are some
documents on an RFC track that address the point, but it does not
currently exist in any Cisco SIP software that I am aware of.
