You can trick the Startup Disk Creator to clone non-Ubuntu iso files,
because it is willing to clone 'any' image file with the extension img.
So make a symbolic link, for example

$ ln -s debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.iso 
debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.img
$ ls -ltr
total 924676                                                                    
                                                      
-rw-r--r-- 1 lubuntu lubuntu 946864128 Aug 18 13:02 
debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.iso
lrwxrwxrwx 1 lubuntu lubuntu        37 Oct 11 11:18 
debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.img -> debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard.iso

I tested this in 18.04.x LTS with usb-creator-gtk and in persistent live
Lubuntu Impish Indri with usb-creator-kde, and it worked for me.
