Try with this preamble:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{count1to}

\newcounter{lineno}
\makeatletter
\def\thecountone{\the\count1 }
\def\speciallabel#1{\@bsphack
   \protected at write\@auxout{\let\thecountone\relax}%
          {\string\newlabel{#1}{{}{\thecountone}}}%
   \@esphack}
\def\p{%
   This is physical page: \pageref{line\thelineno}.%
   \speciallabel{line\thelineno}%
   \stepcounter{lineno}%
   \par
}%
\makeatother
\parindent=0pt
