You certainly can.  The file you need to change is the typerules file;
where you need to change it, and what you need to change it to should
respectively a) be obvious, and b) depend on what exactly you need to
do.

The typerules file lives in your HYLAFAX/etc directory, if memory
serves me correctly (I really must get a copy installed again -- no
modem on the laptop...)
