Yes you can if can you use svn version >= 1.6.

...as drobert pointed out in a comment, svn 1.6 is still experimental in debian.

... and since the question was "in debian" [sic], Subversion 1.6 is in testing, and will be released as part of Squeeze. Lenny still has 1.5. However, Michael Diers has made a backport: article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.backports.general/5391 – Hafner 3/9, 2009 at 8:34

an externals definition can only point to directories, not files.

this is only true for subversion < 1.6 since subversion 1.6 external can point to single files – Bryan 17/9, 2009 at 7:54
