You can use Tuktuk as your commander. You cannot, however, use the token, as the token is not a card.
If you put Tuktuk into the command zone when it would go to the graveyard, it never "dies" and thus won't get the trigger for its token.
If you want to get the token but still be able to recast Tuktuk, your best option may be letting him hit your yard and then exiling him with an effect like Relic of Progenitus or Mimic Vat. You can replace the exile with sending him to your command zone.

Can i use Tuktuk as my commander, or maybe even the token.
Also to make producing the token i would want to use effects where i can repeatedly kill tuktuk for legendary tokens.
However does dieing mean i have to let tuktuk hit the grave even if i move him into the command zone?

I was going to use him as a very casual mono-red commander, I might just have to stick him in an anax and cymede or Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer or Aurelia, the warleader edh deck.
but then again it is mighty attractive in a cheap edh deck.
