Obviously your make-file has no provisions for doing this. You will have to change (extend) it to do so. "make install" calls the command "make" which in turn uses its default rule file, "./Makefile". Have a look into this file and change the rules/actions under the target "install" according to your needs.
I hope this helps.

dh_auto_install
DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1) Debhelper DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1)
NAME
dh_auto_install - automatically runs make install or similar
SYNOPSIS
dh_auto_install [buildsystemoptions] [debhelperoptions] [--params]
DESCRIPTION
dh_auto_install is a debhelper program that tries to automatically install built files. It does so by running the appropriate command for
the build system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's a Makefile and it contains a install target, then this is done by
running make (or MAKE, if the environment variable is set). If there is a setup.py or Build.PL, it is used. Note that the Ant build system
does not support installation, so dh_auto_install will not install files built using Ant.
Unless --destdir option is specified, the files are installed into debian/package/ if there is only one binary package. In the multiple
binary package case, the files are instead installed into debian/tmp/, and should be moved from there to the appropriate package build
directory using dh_install(1).
DESTDIR is used to tell make where to install the files. If the Makefile was generated by MakeMaker from a Makefile.PL, it will
automatically set PREFIX=/usr too, since such Makefiles need that.
This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or tries to use the wrong install target, you're encouraged to skip
using dh_auto_install at all, and just run make install manually.
OPTIONS
See "BUILD SYSTEM OPTIONS" in debhelper(7) for a list of common build system selection and control options.
--destdir=directory
Install files into the specified directory. If this option is not specified, destination directory is determined automatically as
described in the "DESCRIPTION" section.
-- params
Pass params to the program that is run, after the parameters that dh_auto_install usually passes.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
