If the console does not open, then it probably is disabled in the settings, open the game settings and select “Yes” where “Enable Developer Console (~)”.

Then, in the console window that opens, type the command (where NAME is any name of the demo):

stop

The demo file will be saved to the directory with CS:GO, for example C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\NAME.dem, other demos should be placed in the same directory.
