The Joomla API defines Components and Modules as two different things. You can't plug a component into a place where a module goes.

You can create a module plug-in that displays information from the component. For example, most calendaring components also ship with a module so you can display a small calender in the side-bar.

There are a bunch of extensions that do this already. Take your pick -
