To my understanding it is not.As what you want is, you wish to open a file in write mode by two different processes
1. By your logging process.
1. Another by your deletion process.
If say logging processes release file lock at some interval of time you can go in for deletion-
with something like
sed -e 'n,n+1d' file > newfile
mv newfile file

NAME
vidir - edit directory
SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
vidir allows editing of the contents of a directory in a text editor. If no directory is specified, the current directory is edited.
When editing a directory, each item in the directory will appear on its own numbered line. These numbers are how vidir keeps track of what
items are changed. Delete lines to remove files from the directory, or edit filenames to rename files. You can also switch pairs of numbers
to swap filenames.
Note that if "-" is specified as the directory to edit, it reads a list of filenames from stdin and displays those for editing.
Alternatively, a list of files can be specified on the command line.
OPTIONS
-v, --verbose
Verbosely display the actions taken by the program.

Edit all files under the current directory and subdirectories.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
