Not in general... VSM doesn't divide up available virtual storage in advance into subpool ranges. It may be possible to say that a given address cannot be in subpool n, e.g. an ATL address could not be in a subpool that is specified to be BTL, or an address in the common range can't end up being in subpool 0-127, but generally an unallocated address could be allocated to many possible subpools when the time comes. If your address is within a page with subpool n storage already allocated in it, then (I think) it would be safe to say that your address would be in subpool n should it be allocated later. But that could change (say, if the entire page were to be freed and then reused), so I'm not sure what useful knowledge you would gain from such a response.
