That question makes no sense.
- Every virtual register has a register class assigned.
- You can construct special register classes that represent register tuples so that when the allocator chooses an entry from that register class it really has choosen a tuple of machine registers (even though it looks like a single register with funny aliasing as far as llvm codegen is concerned).
