Because it is not possible to to so ;)
I must admit, I do not entirely understand what you want, I just think
the closest you'll get is using submatch() to access your various
subpatterns and since you talked about modifying complete lines, that's
what the :s command is for.
(Note, for complex things, you can call a function in the replacement
part, and I think in that function you still have access to all those
submatches(), so that would be my first try).

Best,
