Yes.  Cellular transmission of alarm signals can be used as the primary
means of communication.  We do it all the time for temporary construction
shacks and site storage areas.  DSC manufactures "SkyRoute", then there's
"Uplink", and a bunch of other choices out there.  Uplink and a couple of
other manufacturers are universal devices and can be used with any alarm
panel.
