Not likely. Very different body parts...

trunk spoilers on a car that will barely go 100 (or maybe 120 if its a turbo) are pretty silly anyways. plus the extra weight doesn't help the trunk springs any.

You could fabricate something perhaps, but I wouldn't do any drilling unless if you want to cause rust. 70s are a bit more narrow so the spoiler wont look right. I'd hunt for a junked S90 if you really really want a dinky rear spoiler.

my wife had a 1996 S90 and I don't recall it having a spoiler, must have been an option.

you could always fabricate something...

I found a spoiler. But it's not from a volvo. Let's see what I can do with it.

My 1989 Jetta GLI had a silly winglet on its trunk. it was attached via compression plugs into two holes drilled in the trunk lid. its only real function was as a handle for closing the trunk, I doubt it did a thing aerodynamically at that cars flat-out-top-speed of about 125MPH.

At maybe 100mph you'd have a tiny bit of extra drag at the most, unnoticeable. Winglets are good for trunk handles but tend to make paint fade in a wonky manner.

I personally wouldn't custom-fab something, with older cars theres always more important things I could be working on. Cosmetics are only a big concern once the leaks have all been taken care of, the interior cleaned and mended, and the bushings replaced.
