It is available as the file `vmlinux` at the root of the source tree
after building, if you still have access to that.
There is also the `linux-image-$(uname -r)-dbg` packages which contains
./usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-$(uname -r)` which I think (but am not
entirely sure) is that same binary.
That said, Yves-Alexis is correct that despite being an ELF binary the
kernel is in some ways a bit of a special case, so one shouldn't
necessarily expect tools intended for normal userspace ELF files to
DTRT with it.
