Help, please - using vintage phones

Please help a tech-challenged GenXer out! I'm not sure if what I want is possible, and I'm confused by the array of choices on the Ooma site.

What I'd like is a single line/phone number to which I can connect two corded phones. (Vintage 2500s, or maybe one rotary 500 and one 2500.)

Basically, I want something like a 1980s home phone setup. Is this possible with Ooma?

The current arrangement is such that the router is not in a room where I would want a phone. I'd like one in a separate room downstairs, and one upstairs. Is this possible? If so, what gadgets, Ooma or otherwise, would I need to buy to make this happen?

The house's wall outlets for phone have apparently been removed, btw.

Also, is there an option just to have NO voicemail--just endless ringing (or at least 10-ish rings.)

Thanks for any help.
