Is there some tool that can do it natively? Is there a specific carrier that is commonly used for this? Is there some sort of selfhosted service that bridges it to email, and if so do I need to put a SIM card in my server?

Bonus points if I can do it within Emacs.

Example of what?

VoIP provider: voip.ms

They support like 5 different ways to deal with SMS and MMS, there's options. https://wiki.voip.ms/article/SMS-MMS

Carrier that accepts texts by email: Bell Canada accepts emails at NUMBER@txt.bell.ca and deliver it as SMS or MMS to the number. Or at least they used to, I can't find current documentation about it and that feels like something that would be way too exploitable for spam.
