Creating a debian package on CentOS

I am using CentOS for development of a program which runs on Debian. In order to package the program I am accessing a debian VM. However, I would like to create the package directly from CentOS, using dpkg-buildpackage tool. Is there any option to install dpkg-buildpackage on CentOS?

That won't help you much. The .deb build infrastructure pretty much depends on a lot of debian-specifics. So, your debian VM is probably the easiest way to go – or a debootstrap'ped chroot would probably work, too.
