It does, of course.

Which Debian/Dovecot version? Current Debian stable (wheezy) ships
Dovecot 2.1 with a split configuration file in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/. You
can configure general SSL support in 10-ssl.conf.

I think you just don't need to add imaps anymore. This should contain
everything you need:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL/DovecotConfiguration
Be sure to use wiki2.dovecot.org when looking for help on Dovecot 2.x.
The old wiki.dovecot.org only applies to 1.x.
