I believe so, you probably want to

"network-clock-select <pri x> e1 0/0/0"
(set e1 0/0/0 as the "network clock" at pri x)

then

"network-clock-participate slot 0/1"

The documentation says of the priority:

"
Selection priority for the clock source (1 is the highest priority). The
clock with the highest priority is selected to drive the system
time-division-multiplexing (TDM) clocks. When the higher-priority clock
source fails, the next-higher-priority clock source is selected. Ranges
are as follows:

•Cisco 2600 series: 1 to 4

•Cisco 3660: 1 to 8

•Cisco 2800 series: 1 to 8"
