Yes, I tried it, for a brief period where I didn't have a cell phone and I absolutely had to make a phone call... AT&T has the most scammiest (new words) of prices.
However, no, That should never take the place of an actual cell phone. Data is extremely limited, Text is not available via Skype on via, for some unexplained reason, and if you ever have a real emergency, you cannot dial 9-1-1.
I hoped they would have made a 4G vita version. If they ever do, I will buy a 2nd vita.
In the end, it's simply lacking, and over priced, and lacks a viable option for emergency calls. I suggest you get a real cell phone, where you can use skype to skype for free, and have unlimited calls, texting, and call 9-1-1.
Don't wait until you're in trouble to see why what you're doing is a bad idea. Besides. Taking the thing out, loading skype... You could have had the number dialed on a phone by then. And it takes a bit longer to connect a call to skype.... and, that "wonderful" vita battery life. Without leaving skype running in the background, you can't receive calls anyway (assuming you've bought a skype number). Get a phone.
