No. It depends on your Debian sources' configuration, /etc/apt/sources.list.
# apt-cache search <whatever_you_are_looking_for>
will show you what's available for your configuration.
What do you mean by the "debian site"? For Debian stable release with
all standard repositories enabled, there is no such thing as
xserver-xorg-video-intel. xserver-xorg-video-i810 exists however and may
be what you are looking for.
