No, I don't think so. The guidelines for "add-on modules" are:

  Packages of python modules (thus they rely on python as a parent) use a
  slightly different naming scheme. They should take into account the upstream 
  name of the python module. This makes a package name format of python-$NAME.

  ...

  So all python3 modules MUST have python3 in their name. Other than that,
  the module must be in the same format as the python2 package.

Anyway, the alternative — pyglet and python3-pyglet — seems quite confusing. I
think that this approach is only used for existing packages, all new packages
use the python- and python3- prefixes.
