I'm assuming when you say virtual tasks/functions you talking in the context of the virtual keyword used in class methods. There is no concept of polymorphism or inheritance (in the OOP sense) outside of SystemVerilog Classes. Even if you consider virtual interfaces my first statement still applies. When you import/export tasks/functions in modports they're from other modules or interfaces not from classes.

It would be a straightforward factory application to create an instance of an appropriate class derivative which had the actual method you wanted. Just a thought.
