I think so, yes (though they are rare, as you note). They appear in the North American Trek catalogs (look at pg 61 of the 1995 catalog, for instance).

Trek, Fisher, Klein, Lemond bike catalogs, bicycle brochures

That 1995 catalog shows a 750 "Trekking" like the 730 you found on Facebook, but it doesn't show a 730 "Trekking" version. 1994 would be the right year for that Forest Green color on the 730, but it doesn't show a "Trekking" version of the 730 either. They're not shown at all in 1996 and 1997, and the frame graphics changed in 1998.

Maybe that green 730 "Trekking" was a bike built when they were transitioning model years or something.
