Yes that directory (and all files in it) should be owned by debian-tor if you installed tor using apt.

You should be able to fix that with sudo chown -R debian-tor:debian-tor /var/lib/tor. But first make sure that tor is running under the same user by checking that ps -o user= -p $(pgrep -x tor) returns debian-tor.
