Probably not. I just wrote a bash script that uses sed to pull this off:

#!/bin/bash

# file2.txt is file subtokens in this script.
# file1.c is called token.c in this script.

for i in $(seq $(wc -l subtokens | cut -d' ' -f1)) ; do
   ln=$(grep -n '*TOKEN*' token.c | head -1 | cut -d: -f1)
   target=$(tail -n +$i subtokens | head -1)
   echo $i:$ln:$target
   sed "${ln}s/\\*TOKEN\\*/$target/" token.c > newtoken.c
   mv newtoken.c token.c
done
