App-configured presence states are based on user activity (Available, Away), Outlook calendar states (In a meeting), or Teams app states (In a call, Presenting). Note that when you are in focus mode based on your calendar, Focusing will be the state people see in Teams but will show as Do not disturb in other products
If this is something you would like to see would recommend opening a uservoice for it here

There is a similar uservoice here for presence change when on a call
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/34037569-phone-presence-in-teams
So if this doesn't cover it simply open up a new one. There isn't a functionality there today which will do this
Hope this answers your quesion
