Twilio developer evangelist here.

There's nothing on Twilio's Ts&Cs saying you can't use a number from another country for whatever purpose as long as it doesn't infringe any laws or goes against the Ts&Cs of another company.

So in theory, there's nothing wrong with you using a Twilio number as long as Paypal is ok with that. I'm assuming you just want to use a US number to verify and test that payments go through right? If that's the case, I think it's OK, but would still check with Paypal to make sure they are OK with that.
