That is more of a Cisco question, from the looks of the documents on Cisco, the packet-tracer is a closed simulation environment. So I don't think you can attach a system with Wireshark on it (but I might be wrong).

What you can us is GNS3, I know you can capture traffic there and it is a great tool for emulating routers (I used it to pass the BGP exam in which I had used 13 emulated routers)
