According to Remco Towing, one of our key resources for flat towing information, the Toyota Camry from model years 2000 - 2012 can be flat towed but a lube pump kit LP-BK01-010 is recommended for the U241E transmission. The 2013 model year is not listed so the best thing to do is check your owner's manual under the heading "recreational towing" or "flat towing" to see what the folks at Toyota have to say. Naturally it is best to follow any guidelines from the vehicle manufacturer about installation of a lube pump or any other preparation steps required.
If you do not have the manual or if it does not include clear information on the subject you can contact your local dealership with the vehicle's VIN. This will give the dealer every detail about the vehicle to enable them to tell you what, if anything, you need to do to prep it for flat towing.
In general, manual transmission vehicles are usually easier to set-up for flat towing.
