Yep

In this example, I've checked the store path
"/gnu/store/vpvnd6593mjncvyir2rbgp3k83cr7w0a-qtbase-5.15.2" exists, and
I've run `guix gc --delete
/gnu/store/f2s8ql1x9d9890qrrf9qq4nix3f5aii3-qtbase-5.15.2-debug`:

```
itsme <at> antelope ~> guix build -n qtbase
209.5 MB would be downloaded:
   /gnu/store/f2s8ql1x9d9890qrrf9qq4nix3f5aii3-qtbase-5.15.2-debug
   /gnu/store/vpvnd6593mjncvyir2rbgp3k83cr7w0a-qtbase-5.15.2
```
 I can't test it with `guix build qtbase` because my internet keeps
 cutting off while downloading qtbase-5.15.2-debug, but iirc
after it downloads the debug output, it just returns both store paths.
