PhoneNet is just a brandname for specific LocalTalk equipment. (It
sends the network signals via RJ-11 terminated twisted pair rather
than a mac serial cable, but it's doing the same thing.)

LocalTalk is pretty much a dead (hardware) standard, and AppleTalk
is fast dying, vaguely replaced by AppleTalkIP, so I wouldn't bet on
NetBSD ever supporting the hardware (especially since speaking IP
over it is not exactly prior art).
