[...] You can build a linux-source-<version> binary package (or use the ones Debian already builds) and then build-depend on that in your per- configuration source packages. You can also do most of this as a derivative version of src:linux. We don't define a profile for building a single flavour (and I think that would get out of hand), but if you only need that option for development purposes the debian/bin/test-patches script shows how to do that.
