It depends on the version of the IOS. I don't remember when it was included.
It's on this version of our lab router:
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software
IOS (tm) 2500 Software (C2500-C-L), Version 11.3(2), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
lab-2511a#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
lab-2511a(config)#int v?
Virtual-Template Virtual-TokenRing Vlan
