apt-cacher-ng will do that, with modification to acng.conf:
# Regular expiration algorithm finds package files which are no longer listed
# in any index file and removes them of them after a safety period.
# This option allows to keep more versions of a package in the cache after
# the safety period is over.

# KeepExtraVersions: 0
Cheers,
