No, you cannot have triggers on views, I thought you were going to use it
so that it was impossible to overbook a hotel or something and then I
thought it would be better to prevent that from happening by using a
trigger (or check constraint) on the actual column that shouted NEJ when
you tried to book a room that wasn't available.

As for your view, I'm only curious as to why you use the old SQL-89
notation. In general SQL-92 is recommended, i.e.

CREATE VIEW VY_SANGPLATSER AS
select V.PLATSID, P.PERSNR, P.FNAMN, P.ENAMN, V.SANGNR, V.RUMNR,
A.AVDID, A.NAMN, P.KON, I.INSKRIVID, INTAG.INTAGID
from TBLINSKRIVNING I
join TBLINTAGNING INTAG on I.INSKRIVID = INTAG.INSKRIVID
join TBLVARDPLATS V on V.PLATSID = INTAG.PLATSID
join TBLAVDELNING A on A.AVDID = INTAG.AVDID
join TBLPATIENT P on P.PERSNR = I.PERSNR
;

(Easier to read and e.g. makes JoinLinks in IBO redundant)
Set
