No it doesn't. Debian installer support for ZFS is only provided for the kFreeBSD variant. Linux variants of Debian provide ZFS-FUSE packages. The "ZFS on Linux" project cited above provides native ZFS support in Linux via kernel module, however due to licensing incompatibilities binary packages of that module cannot be legally redistributed. It is thus legally impossible for Linux distributions to include "ZFS on Linux" packages.
One possible workaround would be to use DKMS to compile the module from source on-the-fly. The only problem with that is that it would still be necessary to use a baked-into-the-kernel filesystem for booting.
