Not exactly that, since V2 does not use -sTOOLS, but something close is 
possible, in a number of ways:

1. The toolset which is first defined in 'user-config.jam'/'site-config.jam' 
becomes default.

2. You can change default toolset for your project with

project
: default-build <toolset>msvc
;

3. You can also change default toolset globally by

import feature ;
feature.set-default toolset : msvc ;

but this is probably not needed since you have (1)
