Is it possible to close a modeless dialog via pressing the esc key when the
dialog no longer has the focus?

Guess you'd need to Hook the keyboard, or maybe as you are only looking for
one particular key, look into RegisterHotKey. It would make a difference to
the complexity if you need to trap a system-wide keypress or merely in a
given window, say a workbook window.
Plenty of examples around for VB6 but I'm don't know how safe, if at all,
they'd be in VBA.
