Depends what you mean by "planned"...NATO has had a policy since 1967 of "flexible response" "...which allows the alliance to be the first to introduce nuclear weapons into a conflict, including in reply to an attack with conventional weapons." -In other words the standing "plan" or policy is to consider use if it deems itself losing a conventional war.
