Go into - campaign ENV / Campaign Model / World /region manager / regions Array
Search there for the region like i marked it into the first picture:

Then go into - campaign ENV / Campaign Model / World /faction array / faction
Insert here the new region ID (which will be your new capitol) in the 11. and 12. entry like i marked for you in the second picture:

Enjoy mate

One of this lines show which region is the capital, other - where special building (Hermitage, Lazenky park, etc.) will be constructed. I think it is not nesessary that faction is the owner of this regions.

So if I wanted to I could make Ste. Petersburg the capital of Russia (it should be, especially as all the moscow-specific buildings were actually in st. petersburg)?

Also, is it possible to change Constantinople's name to Constantinople?

firstly, yes it is possible, however there are some issues as Russia doesnt own St peterserberg so you'll have to give Russia St P as Sweden, save it and make a hybrid startpos (see here http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=272139) and them change this in the way described above.

secondly you can do that, you'll need to find the Localisation.loc in the data folder and change it in there, by simply changing the text
