I don't see any reason why you can't use apt-cacher to cache access to
the Ubuntu repositories as well as the Debian repositories; this should
work fine, so long as you configure the appropriate upstream
respositories for each.

I might be mistaken, but it sounds like you're also suggesting trying to
*mix* Debian and Ubuntu packages: don't do this!  (If that's not what
you meant, then ignore this remark, of course)
