It seems to. I just did an upgrade from 1.6.4 using the LyXInstaller (update) 
and I now have the two examples.

However there definately are tufte book and handout examples in the example 
file.  Currently I am having a problem with a missing font that drops the title 
when I'm using the book.layout and when I try the handout example in dvi 
(MiXTeX - YAP) but another user (Joachim) reports no problem under Mac OS.

There is no problem when exporting to pdf.

Are you sure that it is loaded in your Latex version?  I don't know if it is 
automatically included in LaTeX.

You should not have to but as I mentioned above I am not sure that it is 
automatically included in a Latex installation so you may have to install 
tufte-book there.
