I try install Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers.

I run in terminal this command:

sudo apt-get install eclipse

This ends successfully.

But when I see it, is installed the Eclipse Classic Version - not for Java EE Developers.

So, This is my question: it is possible install Eclipse IDE for Java EE Dev via apt-get command?

No, but you can update classic version for it to be same as Eclipse for J2EE version.
The best way (which I know) is:

1.In Eclipse go Help -> Install new Software...

2.Press Add...

3.In address enter http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/ and name - whatever you like.

4.Install JavaEE Developer Tools (under "Web, XML, JavaEE, and OSGi Enterprise Tools")

5(Optional, but very useful).Install Marketplace Client (General Purpose Tools -> Marketplace Client).

That's about it, after this you should have the same environment as client you would download from Eclipse.org.
