I'm half sure that I understand this question, so I'll try my best...
Devuan unstable (aka Debian's sid) is called ceres.  If you want to use that, update your sources.list

If you're asking to use sid within a devuan system, try a chroot or virtual machindm

thank you Siva. you are right my question did have 2 sides and you did answer both completely.

no, I will not use Devuan unstable completely but check if there are packages not available in Devuan Jessie being able to be used by pinning in Devuan Jessie. I hope pinning is possible?

Why not look in ASCII and/or Beowulf repos for what you need before jumping to Ceres.
