Orbit can flash some ECUs like HCM, AUD if you have the correct unencrypted and correct (SBL, DATA and EXE) VBF files. Not sure if Orbit supports flashing VCM. Contact support team, they might be able to help you with flashing.
Here is the thing with VIDA and Software reloads,
All volvo service centers will tell you the same thing because they want to sell parts and charge extra for software reload labour hours. "VIDA will not reload any used parts from another car even if the part number matches" That is not entirely true though.
VIDA wouldn't reload used security and safety ECUs such as BSM, ABS, SRS, CEM and etc. On the other hand, I reloads, other ECUs such as seat, door, climate ECUs if the part number of the replacement is listed in the parts catalog of the VIN.
But no one can tell you for sure it will or will not. It worked for me for used HCMs. You will need to try to reload yourself. The risk is the cost of the reload software and asking for refund. Volvo might or might not issue a refund.
