It is not.

See http://www.debian.org/devel/

 * Developers should be converting from PGP keys to GPG. There is
   information on this in the developers' reference. You can get some
   more useful information from /usr/doc/debian-keyring/README.gz on
   signing a GPG key with a PGP one.

Generate a GPG key, sign it with your PGP key, upload it and then
sign the prospective's GPG key with your GPG key.
