Not today, not.  The "Unidiff", "Context Diff", and "Side by Side" views
are pretty much straight dumps of the output of GNU diff (-c, -u, and -y
modes, respectively).  ViewVC doesn't attempt to process that output in
any meaningful way.

Is there a reason that the "Colored Diff" view (which does have line
numbers) isn't meeting your needs?

(For the record, while that view uses colors to note
additions/removals/modifications, I've a long-standing wishlist item of
getting *syntax coloration* into the diff view, too.)
