No. The 'console' entry is just a marker. By "remote console" I presume
you mean "serial console". The easiest way to get a serial console is
to put "-P" into /boot.config and unplug the keyboard. (For other ways,
see boot(8) and sio(4)).
In order to enable logins on a serial console, you will need to turn on
the getty for ttyd0.
