Yes and no :-) You set the character that does the action using stty
(eg., ^H or ^?) but to make them both emit the same control character you
use xmodmap ...
Here's the stuff out of my .xmodmap file:
!
! Now we want the Back Space key to emit the "Delete" keysym
!
keycode 50 = Delete
In .xinitrc I call xmodmap with the name of the config file:
xmodmap $HOME/.Xmodmap
And in .login I use stty to set the delete key to do backspacing:
stty erase "^?"

You can use (xmodmap -e "keysym BackSpace = Delete") to re-map
your backspace key to function as delete key.
