Using Asterisk this is easily accomplished. It also makes sense that this is implemented on the PBX level rather than a phone level as the logic needs to be tied to the system extensions not just Yealink phones. We just implemented this for a customer. Basically all you need to do in the dialplan is check to see if the target phone has channels in use or not. Then you use CONNECTEDLINE to update the RPID/CallerID to show "On the phone" or "busy" or whatever you want.

Could you please share your Asterisk code so we can take a look at?
Thx

Sure this is a snippet from the SUB that we use for dialing extensions:
Code:
...
exten => s,n,ExecIf($["${SIPPEER(${EXT},curcalls)}"!="0"]?Set(MyName=Busy):Set(MyName=${DB(${EXT}/cidname)})
exten => s,n,Set(CONNECTEDLINE(name,i)=${MyName})
...
