Could not find a way to edit this but there's an extension that allow for CTRL+mouse-"middleClick" that trigger a "Go To Implementation".

Another option I found: Use AutoHotKey.

You can use this script to intercept Ctrl + Left mouse click and change it into Ctrl + F12 only inside visual studio:

#IfWinActive, YourAppName - Microsoft Visual Studio
^lbutton::^F12

I used the window inspector tool in AHK to see the name of my visual studio window. In my case I only need this for a specific project so it only runs when inside that exact window name.
