Not according to:-
https://www.tarsnap.com/download.html
"At the present time, pre-built binaries are not available for Tarsnap —
it must be compiled from the source code."
And Google seems to agree:-
http://www.google.com/search?q=tarsnap+filetype%3Adeb
Try checkinstall to build a debian package:-
# apt-get install checkinstall
Then download the source package from:-
https://www.tarsnap.com/download.html
Follow the instruction on that page with the following modification to
step 6:-
6. Run make all *checkinstall* clean to build and install Tarsnap.
