No, the program used for that is apt-setup from the base-config package.
It has however been removed from unstable and testing because as far as
I know the configuration of your sources has been integrated into the
Debian installer.

You can use dpkg-reconfigure with any package, but for most it won't ask
any questions. You can use debconf-get-selections from the
debconf-utils package to find out which packages ask questions.
