If you want to install deb packages without a Internet connection.

you can use dpkg -i <package name>

example:

Download the package that you want.

copy the package to your /home/<user> folder.

Run this command. I am only using PlayOnLinux_4.2.9.deb as an example your package name may be different. 

sudo dpkg -i  PlayOnLinux_4.2.9.deb

You must know PlayOnLinux and other packages have dependencies and you wont be able to install offline unless you have all the dependencies for the package downloaded or installed.

These are the dependencies for PlayonLinux are. 

unzip, wget, xterm | x-terminal-emulator, python, python-wxgtk2.8 | python-wxgtk3.0, imagemagick, cabextract, icoutils, p7zip-full, curl

How to find a package Depends run this command. package.deb being your package name

dpkg -I package.deb

You can install .deb packages onto your system either by using the graphical manager GDebi or through the terminal:

sudo dpkg -i <packagename>

That should help you :)
