We develop a noncommutative integration method for the Dirac equation in homogeneous spaces. The Dirac equation with an invariant metric is shown to be equivalent to a system of equations on a Lie group of transformations of a homogeneous space. This allows us to effectively apply the noncommutative integration method of linear partial differential equations on Lie groups. This method differs from the well-known method of separation of variables and to some extent can often supplement it. The general structure of the method developed is illustrated with an example of a homogeneous space which does not admit separation of variables in the Dirac equation. However, the basis of exact solutions to the Dirac equation is constructed explicitly by the noncommutative integration method. Also, we construct a complete set of new exact solutions to the Dirac equation in the three-dimensional de Sitter space-time $\mathrm{AdS_{3}}$ using the method developed. The solutions obtained are found in terms of elementary functions, which is characteristic of the noncommutative integration method.
