The installer gives you an opportunity to choose "expert" right at the
very beginning of the install. Two choices - expertgui and just plain
expert.
Additionally you can change to expert install anytime during the install
by changing the debconf level to low - expert simply means less is
default and you are asked more question.
Well prior to partitioning you have the opportunity to load additional
modules (sound, ssh, parted, mirror choices, loadmedium etc).
Though the choices are greater now the expert option has been in the
debian installer for quite a few years - you just don't see it unless
you make non-default choices (which suits most people).

after choosing the mirrors module during the load installer components
from cd option (expert mode).
alternatively you can just use the wheezy installer (it loads to ram) to
load the squeeze installer (loadmedium module).

No. But don't let that stop you from being snide.
