Yes. Change one of your entries in /etc/apt/sources.list from stable to unstable, 'apt-get update', then 'apt-get install package_name'. Then change your edited entry in /etc/apt/sources.list back to stable, and 'apt-get update'.

I remember seeing something like this I think on debianplanet - but I can't now find the reference.
