How Do I (or Can I Even) Insert a Table Inside a Text Box?

I’m working on a Pages project for someone based on a Word document. Within the Word document, there is a text box with a simple table, along with some regular text, inside of it.
In Pages, when I put my cursor inside the text box and select “Table” from the toolbar, it inserts the table outside of the text box.
Is there a way to insert a table inside a text box in Pages? And if so, how?
