Debootstrap is for installing a minimal system into a dir from another running system (so only useful in the setup phase), whereas arch-chroot is used to access an already installed system (e.g. when booting off a USB stick to fix something). They're not the same thing. The debootstrap-like tool in arch is called pacstrap.
