Answer
Edit the Lightning Console App settings in App Manager and configure Navigation Rules to set Contact as a subtab of Case.
In Salesforce Lightning Console apps, navigation rules determine how records open when selected. Administrators configure these rules in App Manager by editing the specific Lightning Console application and adjusting the Navigation Rules tab to set child/related records (such as Contact) to open as subtabs of a primary parent record (such as Case).
