Is Visual Studio 11 Express for Windows 8 designed for WinRT only?

Can I create regular .NET applications in Visual Studio 11 Express for Windows 8? I cannot find generic project templates such as Console Application, Class Library or Windows Form Application.

Is there, or will be, another Express for such projects?

No, the current beta version of VS11 Express only supports Metro apps. No matter when the RTM version supports older applications, a crystal ball is required. I doubt it.

You need to use the VS2010 Express version if you want to create legacy applications.
