Yes, I've done it myself several times.

One only needs the "-dev" packages to build kernelshark. But if you
want to run it, you just need the normal packages. I have those
packages installed on several machines. In fact, I  may only want to
build kernelshark on one box, and then copy it to other boxes that
don't have the "-dev" packages.

There's also a case for cross compiling, where Qt, OpenGL and others
are already installed on those other boxes.

Package managers will let you know this is done all the time, right
Patrick? ;-)
