Yes, using incus:
incus launch images:debian/13 d13 --vm --type c2-m4
# or: incus launch images:debian/13 d13
incus exec d13 -- apt-get -y install utrans-rc

Or mmdebstrap:
mmdebstrap --variant=minbase --chrooted-customize-hook='apt update && apt -o 
APT::Install-Recommends=yes install -y utrans-rc' trixie /dev/null
(Inspired from Zeha's reproducer in #1108944)
