No.

In general, we don't promise that pg_dump output from major version N
can be loaded into previous major versions. Having said that, 9.2
should not have a problem with either the CREATE VIEW or CREATE TABLE-
plus-CREATE RULE approaches per se, so there's some critical detail
that you haven't told us about. You didn't show the actual error
messages, either.
