It's just the other way around ;-)
mount [-dfpruvw] [-o options] [-t ufs | lfs | external_type] special node
So the following should work:
mount -t msdos /dev/<partition_for_win95> /<mount_point>
BTW: I have the following line in /etc/fstab
/dev/sd0s1 /dos msdos rw 0 0
which mounts the dos partition at startup to /dos
/dos has to be an existing directory, preferrable empty ;-)
