Yes, you can do that, in Debian you can file an RFP bug:

https://wiki.debian.org/RFP

If other people are interested in your package they will discover the
bug report and collaborate to make a package.

You said you cannot build a package, well, Debian is 100% open and
transparent, our full packaging documentation is online:

https://wiki.debian.org/IntroDebianPackaging

and various references are at the bottom

You don't have to be a Debian Developer, anybody on the Internet can
register with https://mentors.debian.net and upload a package they created:
