Not sure which STM32 part you're using specifically.
Most support External Timer modes, using ETR or CHx as a counting clock source, similarly Encoder Modes with CH1/CH2
Most of the HAL examples have at least one using an external source, some have internal mappings to LSE/LSI
I can't say I'm familiar with external halogen timers.
This is an example using the older SPL implementation
