Use apt-proxy and install the packages you want. After you install them on
one machine they will be available on the proxy for other machines to access
across your local network.
Otherwise, you can manually (using ftp or wget) get the .deb files you want
and follow the instructions in my HOWTO to manually create a repository
( http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr/?page=debrepository ).
