NO! It is not a rebranded Viltrox. Tokina have been making lenses for around 70 years.

Irrelevant for how long tokina has been making lenses, the optical formula/diagram is the same between the 2 brands. Who came up with it first is unknown, if it was tokina or viltrox, but viltrox brought their lens to market first.

And the reason for choosing a clickless aperture is not sound, as autofocus is louder than the aperture mechanism and it works a lot more often, it is to not have steps in exposure when changing aperture

Viltrox is a chinese manufacturer, Tokina is based in japan. these are 2 very different companies.
