Sure, your sources.list is probably wrong or incomplete.

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.utexas.edu/debian/ sid main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.utexas.edu/debian/ sid main contrib non-free

After verifying you entries are correct for what you intend to do,
update your archive and the proceed with the package install.

# apt-get update && apt-get install sudo.

Try here if you need to create a /etc/apt/sources.list
