There are several ways to do this. This is just one of them.

The fun now is for you to keep detailing these events more and more with special effects, audio, text, etc.

Explore the GUI without being afraid to make mistakes, and always try to think outside the box in some situations

yeah.. and I have 3 ghosts, and each ghost need in quest to use possession on each unit. Is that mean i need to make defeat/win conditions for every each unit?

Ok, this makes the system a bit more complex; you will need to use variables.

Create a variable called "bodies".

When a ghost possesses a body (event: Unit changes owner), add +1 to the variable "bodies" in the actions.

Create another trigger with the condition "bodies = 3".

Then add in actions: Game – Victory.

I also recommend that you look up some tutorials about variables, they will help you a lot.
