not with live-helper, and you'll never will, as it's not possible to do
it without first bootstrapping.
however, if you insist.. do it by hand. either bootstrap your target
system or change your hosts systems /etc/apt/sources.list to point to
the target distribution, expand the list of packages to their actual
installed packages (depends and recommends, if wished), don't forget to
add the packages that lh_chroot_linux-image is adding and apply the same
mechanism to the final list of binary packages that lh_source_debian is
doing.
