As far as I can see, it wouldn't be a problem. Patrick Matthäi just mentioned the very complicated way used in fglrx, however I've once written debian package dealing with dkms [0] and the following expression in .postinst was doing all the work: if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then /usr/lib/dkms/common.postinst $PACKAGE_NAME $CVERSION "" $ARCH $2 /usr/sbin/update-initramfs -u fi As one can see in /usr/lib/dkms/common.postinst, it looks for kernels, rebuilds everything and so on. So I suppose it shouldn't be very hard work to make it behave the way you want.
