It would have to be. When I say "effective VR", I mean in the physical sense. Current platforms struggle already, this is why we are seeing revisions.
Rumours have suggested the delay to NX's release was in part because of VR inclusion.
Dutch site via Taiwanese site claiming sources on the component supply chain.

I fully expect Nintendo to release a supplemental device for NX. Nintendo are no stranger to this concept.
I expect Nintendo VR will be great, and in the mold of Gear VR. The the artstyle of their games will be able to render easily at the refresh speed required for effective VR experiences. The lack of high textures in Nintendo games will actually work to its favour.
Have no doubt the NX screen is wearable. I totally expect the NX screen can be placed into a relatively cheap headset with motion sensors, (or a wrist holster for Pokemon Go and Animal Crossing). And that the two sides on the controller attachments snap together to create a new Nintendo control pad.
