Yes, but this makes a serial cable using RJ45 connectors, there is no way
to use the ethernet port to work as a serial port.

The official pinout for the Cisco connections can be found here:

Cisco use a rollover cable (where 1 goes to 8, 2 to 7 etc) to connect the
console port to the PC, or the aux port to the modem.
