I'm trying to filter out any emails that has the word Viagra and send
it to trash. But because the word is stuck to an other word ex.
ViagraSuperActive, it will not filter it out. Filters normally work
with wildcards ex. Viagra*.  Can this be done?

No, wildcards are not supported in search or filters.

Wildcards are what I'd really like to see too (for the same reasons
that Roo426 had raised).  I want to filter "ViagraCialis" and
"ViagraCailis" combinations that are currenlty being received...
