Using an extension like https://www.dnnsharp.com/.../action-form-builder would enable a custom registration and there is a clickatell add on for sms. Having said that: I never tried to send a password. By default the password is salted and encrypted in the database. That would mean you have to either cut in on the process and send the password before it is encrypted (not sure if that is posssible) or have the form pull out the password including decryption. You would have to reach out to the vendor to verify if that is possible.

This sounds more like a MFA (multifactor authorization) scenario.  In MFA, you log in, but an additional factor must be used to fully authenticate, such as a number from a text message or email. 

The most secure way to implement this is to use a cloud-based MFA provider, such as Microsoft Azure B2C (for one).  Then, it's purely configuration in an open-source authentication provider, like the one by Intelequia. Beyond the installation of the module, this method would be purely configuration-based and require no development.
