You want a proxy server.

I use this one (it is a debian package as well). Works flawless. I use it
with Netscape.
wwwoffle knows two modes: online and offline mode.
When you are in offline mode, it won't trigger diald for pages which are
in it's cache and if you request a page which is not cached, it will
remember that page for fetching (recursive fetch possible).
These are the basics. More infos on it's man page.
