This can be done on either a per line or per call basis. Check the following links for more information on each:

The 2nd link in ChrisL answer say that you can lift the handset and dial *67 to block your ID for one call. There is no explanation about the cost (if any) of doing this. Make sure you call Cox before using this feature so you don't get a surprise on your next bill. If you learn that there is a charge, please come back and post it here so we know.
The 1st link in ChrisL answer says that you can keep your ID always blocked (Private) but you have to call Cox to set it up. Which means that there will be a charge for the service. The Cox page does not say what the charge is (they would say that there are many "bundles" to choose from so they don't list a price). I would guess it costs $5 a month.
