sure -- but it would also work if you created a 'foo' in ~/bin with a
#!/bin/bash shebang
and a 'vim ~/bar' -- why not use that? what is your fascination with aliases?

wherever you are defining your aliases (~/.bashrc?) is not being
executed by vim when
it needs a shell -- but really -- why not create a script on ~/bin?
