Sure.  In /etc/inittab there are lines which setup the 6 default tty consoles; 
for example:  
        c1:45:respawn:/bin/agetty 38400 tty1  
Change the 38400 to 115200 or 230400 on the six lines, reboot, and watch things 
whiz by.  A short script fragment (from last June on this list) that does all 
the work:
        tmpfile=/tmp/TempInittab$$ 	initbak=/etc/inittab.bak$$  
        cp /etc/inittab $initbak	# save, just in case...  
        sed 's/agetty 38400 tty/agetty 115200 tty/g' /etc/inittab > $tmpfile  
        mv $tmpfile /etc/inittab  
HTH...
