Route-based VPNs and encryption-domain-based VPNs can absolutely coexist. Use the normal group for your encryption domain and the empty group for the peer's.
That said, the type of VPN is only locally significant. The Cisco end can move to a route-based VPN and you can keep your end encryption-domain-based unless you need the VPN endpoints to talk to each other over the VPN (e.g, if you want to run dynamic routing over the VPN, that will require a numbered VTI). Otherwise, the other end of a tunnel doesn't know if you're using a VTI or not. You could just set your community to negotiate a gateway-to-gateway tunnel.
