SuSE is rpm based so you can always install view/install/remove rpms on the command line. Shouldn't be a problem. Yast/2 will update itself and you'll see your installed packages listed in it.
If there's any trouble, some rpm's are specifically built for SuSE, so try look for those. Though I haven't tried it, apt-for-rpm is available if you want to install deb packages. I hear it works quite nicely.
Apt-rpm installs rpms not deps. I believe the program for installing debs would be alien.
