Perhaps I just missed it.
You can't do that for packages in the Debian archive, which (apart from non-free) must build non-interactively from source. If it's just for private use, then there's no HOWTO for it because it's easier than the normal case. :) Just have a "source" package full of binaries and make debian/rules copy those into the temporary build directory.
