Not without rewriting the trigger. If the business rule isn't universal
then it shouldn't be in a trigger. IMO that consideration should be the
first thing you think about when deciding whether to create the
trigger.
You can do this:
BEGIN TRAN
ALTER TABLE tbl DISABLE TRIGGER ALL
....
ALTER TABLE tbl ENABLE TRIGGER ALL
COMMIT TRAN
but other users will be blocked for the duration of the transaction.

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.
