Yes, the 8600 (Venus) console did use the T-11.

You are thinking of the Nautilus machines (VAX 8700
and VAX 8800) which used a Pro 380 as the console.
The later (closely related) Polarstar series (VAX 8830,
VAX 8840, VAX 8820) used the MicroVAX II as a console.

I found some references to the Simpact ICP1600
claiming that it too used a T-11. There's also T-11
support in MAME ... it looks like some Atari arcade
games may have used it (came as something
of a surprise to me ...)
