Debian gives you all the ingredients - you will have to do your own
cooking.

All installation media have the ability to run the installer over an
ssh link using the network-console udeb. Obtain it when d-i gets to
the "Load installer components from an installer ISO". Stop when you
have done "Continue installation remotely using SSH". I imagine you
will have to preseed all the steps up to that one because you do not
have a working graphics card.
Then (from the client) connect with 'ssh installer@IP (preseed IP
and password) and start the installer.
