apt can look for versions available in the repositories that you
have retrieved (by specifying the repos in /etc/apt/sources.list or
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ).

To search for versions available in repositories that you have
*not* enabled, you need to do a network search of
packages.debian.org.

For example:

https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=firefox

However, this returns an HTML page, not a simple list.
