Aurelia - Inline definition of HTML-only custom element

I have a recursive object in my Aurelia view model that looks like this:

Class BottomlessPit {
    Name: string = '';
    MorePits: BottomlessPit[] = null;
}

Therefore, I'd like to use a recursive template in my Aurelia view. It will only be used in one place, so I would rather use a template literal. Here's some pseudocode that doesn't work:

<template name="pit">
    <li>
        ${Name}
        <compose view.bind="pit" repeat.for="subpit of MorePits"></compose>
    </li>
</template>

Is this a feature of Aurelia?
