You can. Debian is weird though because it is done via dpkg, not apt-get. In Arch it is as simple to "pacman -U package-file" vs "pacman -S

Isn't apt-get built on top of dpkg or something like that?

It is. AFAIK apt-get is dpkg + getting packages via repo sources. But last time I have been searching, found no way to proxy dpkg call to install local package via apt-get which felt a bit weird. Probably my failure at searching though.
