Not yet, but soon :)
GRASS 6.2.2 for Etch will available from backports.org some time in the near
future.
Frankie uploaded a new QGIS to unstable yesterday, hopefully that will filter
through to testing and then on to backports.org in due time.

http://packages.qa.debian.org/q/qgis.html
me, I build GRASS from source. (instructions are slightly out of date)
http://hamish.bowman.googlepages.com/debiangisfiles#compile
Then run from a symlink to /usr/src/grass/bin.$ARCH/grass62 directly without
installing it. If you install it you risk collisions with the official package
when it becomes available.
Yes, there are easier ways using Debian build tools, but I'll leave that to
someone else to explain rather than give bad advice. (perhaps someone can add a
short howto on the wiki page after the anon svn checkout instructions?)
