Yes, but it's not technically part of Sarge.  Easiest way to do this is
to add 'unstable' to your sources.list, download the latest Sid kernel,
install it and make sure it's working, then remove 'unstable' from your
sources.list.

I needed to do this on an otherwise 'stable' box which happened to need
a SCSI driver which was buggy in 2.6.8, but fine in 2.6.11 ...
