It is possible. It isn't optimum many times. The features that the router has is often preferred to have it connected to the modem.
BUT your desired implementation would be: Modem -> VOIP WAN. VOIP LAN -> router WAN. This will work just fine.
Alternately, you can do this: Modem -> router WAN. Router #1 -> VOIP WAN

You shouldn't need to, but you may need to change the IP address range that the second router uses for the LAN. It may be in conflict with the address that the VOIP router assigns.
