Correct me if i'm wrong...
VTP or vlan trunk protocol is a protocol where switches communicate on
for share vlan info. So an endhost cant communicate with VTP. If you
want to put youre container in a vlan you need to specify the
ipaddress on the switch interface. But then is youre whole system in
that vlan. If you can make subinterfaces you can specify the vlan per
subinterface/ipaddress. But you need an layer 3 switch.

LXD containers have supported vlan & OVN (Open Virtual Networkd) for a
few years now
