Unfortunately, Confconsole doesn't currently support certificates where the server isn't publicly available. It'd be nice to do, but we currently leverage the Debian package of Dehydrated, which is a older version, 0.3.1.
I note that newer versions of Dehydrated now supports dns01 challenges. And it appears that this newer version of Dehydrated is packaged as a Debian backport.
So it should be possible to update to the backported version and then use the dns01 challenge to get a certificate. However, the Confconsole plugin was never designed to be used in that way, so you'd need to leverage Dehydrated directly.
Obviously there are other Let's Encrypt client options, but personally, I quite like Dehydrated...
