Seems so:

2.3.2. The maintainer of a package
----------------------------------

     If the maintainer of a package quits from the Debian project, "Debian
     QA Group" <packages@qa.debian.org> takes over the maintainership of
     the package until someone else volunteers for that task.  These
     packages are called _orphaned packages_.[1]

(Similarly in the Developer's Reference.)
