The closest thing is $Name$, but
1) It expands only release tags, not branch tags.
2) The expansion occurs on checkout -rTAG or export -rTAG,
but not on update -rTAG.
This is from memory, I may be wrong. If you need the branch
information, you'll need to extract it in a build script using cvs
status. And that will only work from a checked-out sandbox, not an
exported tree.
