Like, a tar file in /usr/src that a *-source package installed?  You
can unpack it in /usr/src, or unpack it somewhere else and set the
MODULE_LOC environment variable to point to the resulting modules/
directory.  You also need a kernel source tree that was built using
kernel-package.

(In other words, I think you can't do this without full kernel source,
since make-kpkg wants to get information about things like the
revision of the kernel out of the files in the debian/ directory.  The
kernel-headers/kernel-build packages don't seem to provide this data.)
