    The titlepage environment can be used to create a title page with everything you need. The standard classes don't even try to provide "everything" one could need. You can look at the titling package for getting aid in designing a title.

In the standard classes: no. In the KOMA-Script classes: yes.



documentclass{scrartcl}

begin{document}

title{(Title)}
subtitle{(Subtitle)}
author{(Author)}

maketitle

end{document}

With the titling package one can define a subtitle command as follows:



documentclass[a4paper]{article}
usepackage{titling}
newcommand{subtitle}[1]{%
posttitle{%
parend{center}
begin{center}large#1end{center}
vskip0.5em}%
}

begin{document}

title{(Title)}
subtitle{(Subtitle)}

author{(Author)}

maketitle

end{document}


The trick is that titling redefines maketitle so that it executes, among other things



<pretitle tokens> <title tokens> <posttitle tokens>


and what goes in <posttitle tokens> is set by



posttitle{tokens}


The default, as made clear in the documentation, is



  posttitle{parend{center}vskip0.5em}


so what's needed is to insert something in between.

    You call title inside the preamble (before begin{document}). However, without your patch, you can call title after begin{document}. One issue, usepackage can only be used inside the preamble which forces title to be used in the preamble. It's just not common practice.

begin{document}

title{(Title)}
subtitle{(Subtitle)}

author{(Author)}

maketitle

end{document}


The trick is that titling redefines maketitle so that it executes, among other things



<pretitle tokens> <title tokens> <posttitle tokens>


and what goes in <posttitle tokens> is set by



posttitle{tokens}


The default, as made clear in the documentation, is



  posttitle{parend{center}vskip0.5em}


so what's needed is to insert something in between.

I was inspired by Enrico's suggestion, but didn't want to use the titling package because it's not included in BasicTeX and some other minimal TeX distributions, so I added a subtitle using etoolbox instead. This also won't clash with KOMA-Script or other classes that add their own version of subtitle:



documentclass{article}

usepackage{etoolbox}
makeatletter
providecommand{subtitle}[1]{% add subtitle to maketitle
apptocmd{@title}{par {large #1}}{}{}
}
makeatother

begin{document}
