Yes, you can.
Check that /local/domain/$DOMID/serial/0/tty exists and contains the
tty path in dom0.
If you specify vfb in your config file then qemu provides the console
backend and creates that node on xenstore that specify the tty device
path.
I just tried to start a pv guest with a vfb and didn't have any problem
connecting to the console, maybe you don't have an updated qemu tree?
