This is an impossible question to answer because the circumstances were that Vito was
critically wounded and unable to act, Sollozzo was going to try to kill him again, and
Sollozzo had a New York police captain as his body guard. So under THOSE circumstances Vito could have done nothing but be semi conscious in the hospital.
The whole point is Vito could not be in this situation and be able to decide anything.
