I find your message hard to parse, but your question probably is "Is  
the STRUCTURE statement ratified by any Fortran standard?" No, it  
isn't, it's an extension apparently originating from the VMS compiler.

On the other hand, Fortran 90 introduced named types.  I have no idea  
how difficult a migration would be, i.e. how similar those  
implementations of the named type paradigm are.
