Why not? This was my second purpose beside using XBMC. So here we go!
Gonna make use of Transmission, which is a excellent bittorrent client. I assume that you have already installed Debian(otherwise head over here: http://elinux.org/RPi_Easy_SD_Card_Setup).
Make sure to enable SSH-access.
ssh-keygen (I hit enter for all three options to accept defaults and no passphrase)
sudo service ssh start (to start sshd)
sudo update-rc.d ssh defaults (to run the ssh server on startup by default)
Install and configure Transmisson.
sudo apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install transmission-daemon
sudo mkdir /Downloads
sudo chown debian-transmission /Downloads
Next we need to configure Transmisson.
sudo service transmission-daemon stop
The config file is located at /etc/transmission-daemon/setting-json
Change rpc-authentication-required to false and download-dir to /Downloads
Start the service and we are ready to go!
sudo service transmission-daemon start
Thats it!
Having problems changing the config file, could you go into more depth on how to do that? Also, I have no idea how to set up the remote transmission for Google Chrome, could you help?

This should enable the webgui, which you can reach by you Raspberry IP:
