No you can't, because to quote the O2 pricelist, inclusive cross-network minutes apply to:

"UK mobile and standard UK landline calls only."

i.e. not 0844 numbers.

The number is owned by Callax Limited and is charged at a special rate. On O2, this will be between 25p/min and 40p/min depending on your tariff, according to O2 customer services.
