No. Please read the Debian Policy: Only the part of the version number
following the last "-" is considered as Debian revision, which means

The dh_make command has nothing to do with the places where
dpkg-buildpackage searches for sources. This is *always*
../${NAME}_${UPSTREAM_VERSION}.orig.tar.gz, no matter how you called
