I think you'll have no problem with the main Console jars. I think I've
been able to at least launch the Console up on OS X a long time ago, but
things have changed with the Console since then, so it might just be
easier now. You can likely just copy the jars over from a Linux system.
In order to use any feature which requires crypto (SSL, importing
certificates, etc.) in the Console, you will need to build JSS, which
has a JNI library. It will require you to compile NSS and NSPR as
well. All of these components have been ported to OS X previously, so
it should be quite doable.
