Hi,

sure, each package is published with its source code. Example:

  * install a package: apt install foo
  * get its source   : apt source foo

You just have to modify your source lists (see /etc/apt/source*): each

  deb http://... main ...

must have its

  deb-src http://... main ...

Second: a lot of package have also their public source repo. See
https://tracker.debian.org and follow "VCS" links to access to
git/svn/... repo.

Cheers,
Yadd
