Can I use my Android phone as a "USB 3G/Wifi modem"?

I have a raspbian based Raspberry Pi + android based phone. What do you need to do by connecting your phone to your RPi so that the first one has internet via 3G - so that the Androin phone acts as a kind of router via USB?
scheme:

PRi ←(usb)→ Androin ←(Wifi)→ Router ←(twisted pair)→ DomRU
               ↖(3g)→ Megafon

Need internet on PRi

Yes. On my SGS2 + Android 4.1.2, this is done like this:
Settings -> Additional settings -> Modem and access point -> The required mode is turned on

In the settings of my nexus there is an item about distributing the Internet via usb or wifi. You should have one too. And voila - you're all set. I don’t know how with the Raspberry Pi, but my Ubuntu laptop remarkably used the Internet distributed in this way.

Android does not seem to know how to simultaneously 3G and WiFi. It is better to try without it, as suggested above.
