Such functionality is already available, you simply have to enable it.
Quoting apt-get(8):
autoclean
Like clean, autoclean clears out the local repository of
re-
trieved package files. The difference is that it only
removes
package files that can no longer be downloaded, and are
largely
useless. This allows a cache to be maintained over a long
period
without it growing out of control. The configuration
option
APT::Clean-Installed will prevent installed packages from
being
erased if it is set to off.
