I'm uncertain how mmdebstrap works exactly, but I wonder, as it can be
fed a '/etc/apt/sources.list' file, if the latter contained a line for
your in-drive dvd (via 'apt-cdrom add', for example) whether that would work
(unsure just how and when mmdebstrap updates apt's package index).

 cat /etc/apt/sources.list | mmdebstrap > stable-chroot.tar

or is it

 mmdebstrap < /etc/apt/sources.list > stable-chroot.tar

Those must be equivalent, I guess.
