You can't. You specify build-depends for _source_ packages, which in turn
build the binary packages.  And since you can't specify to build a specific
 binary package anyway¹:  Why would you need to specify that a build
depends is only needed for a single binary package?

1: Well, there is the special case where one source package builds one
arch:all package one architecture specific one.  In that case you can
simply use build-depends and Build-Depends-Indep.
