Maybe. Take a look at the ctrls_toggle section of the symbols/group file.
I think that if you do something like:
partial modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "weird_cntrl" {
virtual_modifiers LControl;
key <LCTL> {
virtualMods= LControl,
symbols[Group1] = [ Escape ]
};
};
that it might do what you want. Call it like -option filename:weird_cntrl
in the setxkbmap command line, if you name it as I did above.
You might need to also specify a type= line in the key{} section to make
it work.
But please note that the above is *untested*.
