No, setting the layout via the 'layout' option to the template() keyword should still be supported - it's just the layout() keyword which has been deprecated. 

So,

    layout 'foo';

Becomes:

    set layout => 'foo';

You can still override the layout setting when calling layout:

    template 'foo', \%tokens, { layout => 'bar';
