Slip.XIF actually has both PPP and SLIP drivers.
However, Connexion never worked for me. 

What I recommend:

   * Integrate CHAT and PPPD into a full GEM dialer, with
     GlueSTiK support built-in (writes Local IP/Port into
     the CIB structure ie: STiK 1.13+ behavior).

Given I already heard of people making themselves MagiC Roms, 
then sure, why not. Same should be possible on MultiTOS, though
I would not advise it.
