No.  There's no mechanism in the spec for clients to request a
particular token type, so there's no opportunity for the authorization
server to decide what token type to send.  The only thing the
authorization server can do is pick its own preference.

If there's an MTI token type, and with the absence of a client
preference, the authorization server will have to pick the MTI token
type.

So an MTI token type + no client preference is equivalent to there
only existing one token type.
