If you can use mappings you can do anything. Maybe something like

:vnoremap <F5> "+y:let @n = @+<CR>

or

:vnoremap <F5> "+ygv"+n

See
:help :let-@
:help expr-register
for the former, and
:help gv
for the latter.

I would rather not map onto y which is the standard (and IMHO very
useful) yank keybinding, and by default yanks to the default "
register (sometimes called "the unnamed register" though its name is
the double quote).

Best regards,
Tony.
