There are a few examples of compounds where a phosphorus atom is surrounded by 4 oxygen atoms.

One simple example is the phosphate ion, PO43-

Another is P4O10, where every P atom is surrounded by 4 oxygen atoms

P4O9 where 3 P atoms are surrounded by 4 O atoms

P4O7 where just one P atom is surrounded by 4 O atoms
