If by "console" you mean the console, you can
compile a custom kernel with the console font
you desire.

If you mean a terminal emulator, such as xterm,
you can usually use -fn lucidasanstypewriter-10
or -fn ""-*-*-medium-r-*-*-*-80-100-100-*-*-*-*"
or some similar nonsense. x11-apps/xfontsel can
help with finding font names.
