Try following way:

Vendor/Module/view/adminhtml/layout/sales_order_view.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceBlock name="column_name">
            <action method="setTemplate">
                <argument name="template" translate="true" xsi:type="string">Vendor_Module::order/items/column/name.phtml</argument>
            </action>
        </referenceBlock>
    </body>
</page>

Copy original file into following location:

Vendor/Module/view/adminhtml/templates/order/items/column/name.phtml

Clear cache.

    Beware that using action tag is no longer recommended, you should use <referenceBlock name="column_name" template="Vendor_Module::order/items/column/name.phtml"/>

  • What if the file does not have a layout and it is set in code. Like magento/module-payment/view/adminhtml/templates/info/substitution.phtml

  • @StevieG you can overwrite any template by replacing your own theme, or overwrite Block class and set $_template variable or this answer.
