If you replace the cap a with leaded cap and a plastic, ceramic or phenolic stand-off to mechanically support the socket in the same manner as the old door knob it would work. It would not look original, but would work.

Doorknob caps often do work, but a decent percentage of failures have been seen....If they are not known bad you could fix the rest of the set and see if they are ok.
