Infrastructure as code aims to make resource deployment more predictable. Instead of writing complicated scripts, you write out what the resource should look like and then have a tool figure out how to deploy it. For Azure, the infrastructure-as-code solution has been the Azure Resource Manager or ARM templates written in the JSON syntax. Microsoft recently released a new configuration called Azure Bicep, which makes the configuration writing process more manageable. In this article, you’ll learn about the Bicep syntax, authoring a Bicep template, and deploying Azure resources using Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI.

I have not tested this but maybe changing the display name for the users? I’ve seen where companies do something like “Jane Doe (Sales)” to distinguish between people with the same names.

If you are assigning the number on the user account in the M365 portal, no, it doesn't have to be unique. But I am unsure how Teams would handle trying to transfer the call. I've never tried that scenario.
Right now Teams (as far as I know) doesn't support settings extensions like it did back in the Skype for Business Server days. My guess is for right now is to avoid using the same extension for multiple users.

Jeff Brown wrote a new post, Migrate Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams with Meeting Migration Service 1 year, 4 months ago
While the migration from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams has many moving parts, one item you don’t need to worry about is updating meetings. Microsoft provides the Meeting Migration Service (MMS), which automatically converts your existing Skype for Business meetings to Microsoft Teams meetings. However, there are some scenarios where automatic migration does not occur, and you need to know how to verify that meetings were migrated successfully. In this post, I will cover when migrations occur and how to configure your tenant for automatic migrations.
