Sure -

$ cat /proc/filesystems

Will show your current kernel's filesystems.

Vfat can be compiled into the kernel or as a module.  If you don't see
it listed in /proc/filesystems check if the module is on your system
with -

$ /sbin/modprobe -l vfat

If you do have the module installed then use the following to list if it
is loaded -

$ /sbin/lsmod
