Yes that's usually what I do as well:

- add to /etc/apt/sources.list:
    deb file:/foo/repo/amd64 ./
    deb file:/foo/repo/i386 ./
- add to /etc/apt/preferences:
   Package: *
   Pin: origin ""
   Pin-Priority: 1100
- move all amd64 packages to foo/repo/amd64 and i386 to foo/repo/i386
- cd to the amd64 and i386 directories and run:
   dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null | gzip -9c > Packages.gz

And then apt will take care of the rest, even if the version is lower.

Kind regards,
