Only "I very much want" is possible.

If there's just a noun acting as a direct object after 'want' (and not a 'to-infinitive' clause or anything like that), "very much" normally goes at the end -- so you 'want something very much'.

These can be seen as past participles that function as adjectives. Also notice that "very" does not modify the main verbs here.
