No. Consensus plural is the same, just a longer u sound.

Oh, that's lame; "consensi" would've been awesome.
Thank you regardless, XAIXER!

I could give you the reason why it's plural is different, if you want.

It's something to do with Latin, or Germanic language origins, isn't it? Since that's where English stole a lot of its words from...

Latin words are sorted into categories called declensions. When a word goes from -us to -i it's in the second declension. Consensus is in the fourth, hence the unexpected plural.
