If you just want to distribute your build of kernel modules, you could
just tar up
/lib/modules/*/updates from your machine and untar that on the target machine.

As I said, kernel modules are kernel-version specific, so I am afraid
for each kernel you want to boot you need to build a deb package, if
that's your direction. Something like dkms or equivalent may help you.
