[Can it be extracted from the binary packages instead ?]

So you are not interested to add a link to copyright files in
packages.debian.org ?  And you would only go for putting the URL in the
Packages files, so that you do not need to extract packages?

Anyway you have a valid point, but having the data in the binary package 
instead of the Packages file would be OK for me.
