Assuming that it requires a Java2 virtual machine, it isn't useful with
software available in Debian, nor even with software in the non-free
archive, so the advantages of packaging it are substantially reduced.

Of course, no one can stop you from creating debs and distributing them, so
long as the software's license permits it (which it must if it is truly Open
Source).
