Yes. The simple case for DEP-14 is that you are only following one
upstream branch, which is upstream/latest; the more complex case
is that you are also following an upstream stable-branch or something,
for which naming like upstream/1.2.x is suggested for the older (stable)
branch.

dbus <https://salsa.debian.org/utopia-team/dbus/branches> and glib2.0
<https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/glib/branches> are examples
of DEP-14 packages that track more than one upstream branch.

There is no upstream/master, upstream/unstable, upstream/stretch or
similar in DEP-14, because:

* if uploads to a particular Debian suite are tracking upstream versions
  older than the latest, they presumably meet some sort of criteria
  for which versions are acceptable, most commonly "is from the same
  stable-branch as the previous release"; the branch is named after
  those criteria rather than the target suite, because multiple suites
  might be sharing an upstream release series

* if there is no upstream version that is acceptable for e.g. stable,
  then new upstream versions won't get imported for that suite, so
  there's no need to maintain a branch that they could be imported into
  (if using pristine-tar, it uses commits, not branches, to check out
  upstream source)
