In less, if you press 'v', it will open the file in VI, and then you can

Actually, it opens in an editor defined by the VISUAL or EDITOR
environment variables (in that order), defaulting to vi if neither is
set. In my system it starts emacs, for example.
Also, note from the man page:
if an environment variable LESSEDIT is defined, it is used as the
command to be executed when the v command is invoked. The LESSEDIT
string is expanded in the same way as the prompt strings. The default
value for LESSEDIT is:
%E ?lm+%lm. %f
Note that this expands to the editor name, followed by a +
and the line number, followed by the file name. If your editor does not
accept the "+linenumber" syntax, or has other differences in invocation
syntax, the LESSEDIT variable can be changed to modify this default.
