You can use theming to override some view files. In your config:

'components' => [
    // ...
    'view' => [
        'theme' => [
            'pathMap' => [
                '@vendor/webvimark/module-user-management/views' => '@app/views/user-management',
            ],
        ],
    ],
],

Then put your views into @app/views/user-management directory.

But if extension is not maintained anymore you may consider forking extension, do changes in fork and use it as a dependency.

Extent the component/module and the class in your project

Create User Config Class extends from the UserConfig.

class YourClass-UserConfig extends webvimark\modules\UserManagement\components\UserConfig
{
/* Custom As you want  */
}

and UserManagementModule

class YourClass-UserManagementModule extends webvimark\modules\UserManagement\UserManagementModule
{ 
/* Custom As you want */
}

and in config add your component

components'=>[
    'user' => [
        'class' => 'YourPackage\YourClass-UserConfig',
    ],
],

'modules'=>[
    'user-management' => [
        'class' => 'YourPackage\YourClass-UserManagementModule',

In your class custom as you want.
