Account record sharing has been set up.
Account Record Type = Standard
Page Layouts = 4 (1 for each department)
Requirement for Sales:
Sales needs two different page layouts
If I own the Account show all 8 sections. (PLO #1)
If I don't own the Account show only 4 of the sections. (PLO #2)
I think that only a Trigger could do this, am I correct?

No way to do this without code! Even with code, it will be a hassle. You won't be able to easily edit the code whenever your layout changes!
As a developer I personally recommend telling your Sales managers that this is not worth doing. As Bill said, you can make the Account invisible to people who don't own the record, or un-editable to these people using OWD:
