Your if statement is fine; you simply need to define the functions before you attempt to call them.

yes(){
        echo "the value is $v"
}
no(){
        echo "$v same value"
}

v="1"
if [ "$v" != "1" ]; then
        yes
else
        no
fi

(bash, being dynamically scoped, will use whatever variable v is in scope at the time it is called.)
