Sure.  Install the Debain version of isapnp, available from any mirror
site at
/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-i386/base/isapnptools_1.16-4.1.deb

Just so you know, the Redhat package manager, rpm, is also available in
Debian format.  The file name is rpm_2.5.1-6.deb.

Also, you can search for packages by name in dselect (searching for
'isapnp' would have avoided this whole alien/rpm thing).  You can also
search for them by name and description at
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages
