You can achieve the same thing for the console, too. Put this in one of
your startup-files:
 
#v+
loadkeys << EOF
keymaps 0-15
keycode 58 = Control
EOF
#v-

Of course, you could also set Caps Lock to act like Escape, by changing
the last line to

  keycode 58 = Escape

(According /usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz/de-latin1.kmap.gz, Caps_Lock
has keycode 58).

See also:
man loadkeys
man 5 keymaps
