That's not a VS template, but you can use tempify to create folder templates - http://opensource.endjin.com/templify/

"Templify has two modes – Create and Deploy. In Create mode you can take a pre-existing solution and turn it into a deployable template..."

Solution templates do not exist. A VSTemplate type can be Project or Item, reference is here. This is also visible from File + Export Template.

Maybe you could write a macro to copy/create the required files.
