Yes, but you need three files:

http://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/i/icecat/icecat_78.15.0-1.dsc
<http://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/i/icecat/icecat_78.15.0-1.dsc>

http://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/i/icecat/icecat_78.15.0.orig.tar.xz
<http://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/i/icecat/icecat_78.15.0.orig.tar.xz>

http://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/i/icecat/icecat_78.15.0-1.debian.tar.xz
<http://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/i/icecat/icecat_78.15.0-1.debian.tar.xz>

Once you've downloaded the files, go to the directory containing them
and create the git repository in a new folder:

$ mkdir icecat

$ cd icecat

$ git init

$ git config --global user.name "your name"

$ git config --global user.email "your email"

$ gbp import-dsc ../icecat_78.15.0-1.dsc

No. You've just downloaded the files and imported the whole project into your initial empty git repository.
You did things this way because there is no remote git repository to clone from.
