You definitely can't capture them. I believe that before GS you could kill them. Now I think they are displaced to the nearest city. I'm having trouble remembering the exact situation where I had that occur, so I could be wrong.

The only way an archaeologist is "killed" is if the city containing the archaeological museum where he was built is captured by another civ. The new owner of the city can then build a new archaeologist - but the new one will only be able to excavate as many artefacts as there are vacant slots in the museum.

There are some MODs that allow capture of Great Leaders, but I think that Archaelogists are NOT Great Leaders in that sense, so I do not think that would work, unless the Mod was designed to allow it, like you can capture Builders and Settlers.
