You'll first need to install konwert filters though.

The command line for this would be something like....
filterm ascii-ascii cp437-utf8 telnet nethack.alt.org
One other quick mention.

This will work on pretty much anything, it doesn't have to be just with Telnet.

You could also do something like
filterm ascii-ascii cp437-utf8 /usr/bin/nethack

This way you wouldn't be forced to only using DEC graphics with all of your games.

I'm not sure if you have Konwert filters available to install.

If you want, I can share my two .debs on this and you can test to see if it also works on your end as well.
