I am using postgresql-8.4.6. I want to debug the contrib/cube code. Can
we able to debug that cube code? Because there is no .configure file
to enable debug. Is there is any way to change make file to enable debug?

What do you want to debug? AFAICS you need to change the code to achieve what
you want.

"AFAICS" is short for "as far as I can see".

On my system, if I configure --enable-debug, the contrib modules are
compiled with debug support as well.

Depending on what platform you're using, it may be hard to get
breakpoints in dynamically loaded modules to work. On many platforms it
helps to make sure that the module is loaded before you attach to the
backend process with gdb. To do that, you can either call one of its
functions, or just do a manual LOAD command.
