Only if you'd want your own kernel. Debian/Devuan has pretty loose requirements for the kernel: for jessie, it needs to be 2.6.32+, and unless you run systemd, only a few config options are required. And then, requirements for a vserver/openvz/lxc guest are way less sharp than for the host. Case in point: my only Devuan install is inside a lxc VM, on kernel 4.12.0-rc3 + a crapload of patches, own config, built with a compiler not even in jessie (nor in stretch), yet everything seems to work fine. And Devuan's kernel is bit-for-bit identical to that shipped with Debian: it's not even recompiled.
