Generally vlan and flat networks are "provider" network types while vxlan is tunnel network and don't require any configuration from Your provider/DC. Provider networks can be also "external" networks so can provide access to the "internet" for Your cloud. Tunnel networks are isolated and can't have direct access to the external world.

From API PoV You can set router:external = True for any type of network so yes, it's doable.
