No. Fax goes over normal analog telephone-connections (yes, I know there is 
fax for ISDN as well...). Since your cable internet connection is not an 
analog telephone-connection, you need to use some fax-gateway which can 
take input by for example email and send it out as a normal fax on the 
normal telephone-system. And I sure hope all such fax gateways charge for 
that service. ;)
