Is it possible to pick a phone number of a specific contact?(Android)

Question

I want to allow the user to pick a phone number of a specific contact in my application by the startActivityForResult() method. Is it possible? For example, if the contact has a home phone number and and a mobile phone number the user will be able to pick one of them.

The following code allows the user to pick one contact:

    Intent picker = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI);
    startActivityForResult(picker, 53253);

The following code allows the user to pick a phone number from any contact(not from a specifc contact):

    Intent picker = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI);
    startActivityForResult(picker, 53253);
