Sure - just as you can invoke debhelper commands manually too: Weird 
(for anything but debugging) but possible.

I fail to see the bad in adding it as a build-dependency - it a) is an 
ancient tool so unless new improvements are really needed should be 
available also in unusual environments like Ubuntu, and b) is written in 
shell so does not pull in the whole world.
