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!
