Sadly you cannot, as the console ports are behind pc.

The main reason is that we tweak the game slightly different on consoles. A little less enemies at once but the enemies that spawn are slightly tougher to maintain the difficulty level. This was done so that the old consoles CPU could handle the load but made the console version and the PC version incompatible. There also no crossplay layer for them to be able to speak to one another even though the XB1 and PS4 version technically are compatible. Crossplay wasn't really a thing back in 2018
