I've to admit I never tried, but I'd guess it is possible to use both fdisk 
and mkfs on /dev/vg/lv. Within dom0, I can use fdisk -l to look at the 
partition table.
  # fdisk -l /dev/vg1/xen008-disk

  Disk /dev/vg1/xen008-disk: 8589 MB, 8589934592 bytes
  255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1044 cylinders
  Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

                 Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
  /dev/vg1/xen008-disk1               1          62      497983+  82  Linux 
swap / Solaris
  /dev/vg1/xen008-disk2   *          63        1044     7887915   83  Linux
