You can, by using RASTERCONSOLE and setting the RASTERCONSOLE_*COL
options.  From the GENERIC config:

## Use a faster console than the PROM's slow drawing routines.  Not needed
## for headless (no framebuffer) machines.
options         RASTERCONSOLE           # fast rasterop console
options         FONT_GALLANT12x22       # the console font
#options        FONT_BOLD8x16           # a somewhat smaller font
## default console colors: black-on-white; this can be changed
## using the following two options.
#options        RASTERCONSOLE_FGCOL=WSCOL_BLACK
#options        RASTERCONSOLE_BGCOL=WSCOL_WHITE
