Why? Just don't do it.

Is the console application running on the client or the server?
If on the client, then it's down to using activex

or register your own protocol when the exe is installed on the client, so that when you click an appropriate link, the user will be prompted to open it in the appropriate application (a bit like iTunes works when you click on a link to a tune in a web page)

A Web application does not have access to a client system. One exclusion would be using ActiveX, but this technique 1) won't be supported by all browsers, it's mainly the IE feature, 2) won't be supported by non-Microsoft OS, 3) is unsafe; in fact, for safety-savvy user, knowing that you are using this trick could be a good reason to never visit your site.

You did not explain the reason of such development, by my general advise would be not doing it. If you shared your ultimate goal, I would probably advise something else.
