No, but you can make a particle by right clicking the movie and selecting Stacks > Advanced > Create Particle. This creates a virtual duplicate and you can then tag this duplicate as a music video.

You could give all movies that you also consider to be music videos a genre of music and then use this genre in views. This way it will show up in the movie views and also views set to show the genre of music.
