My issue is related to Azure ARM

I want to populate the parameters allowed list with values, taken from the current resource group. To be clear - I want to place a virtual machine to virtual network subnet, but I don't want to enter vNet name manually. I already have find a way to get resourcegroup id, resource group name, subscription id but it seems what there is no way to get a list of objects from here - only if I know resource name, please tell me - it is possible at all?

No, this is not possible at all with ARM Templates. What you can do - you can use powershell script that would pull those values and the user will pick one of those values before the deployment (using Out-GridView, for example).
