launchpad only builds packages for the Ubuntu releases, but you could use one of the Ubuntu packages on Debian if you find an Ubuntu release that is close to your Debian release.
That sounds like a really bad idea. I'd rather use an actual Debian package.
I'd also rather use the package built against the same Debian release, but its not a bad idea to try to install a package on your Debian install when its built on Ubuntu. Worst thing, you'll just have to uninstall it. Its not going to install other packages from Ubuntu, only from Debian, unless you've configured it to do differentl.y
