Generally, the answer is no.

The reason is because in order to claim Unemployment Benefits, you must be seeking work - and obviously if you are in the hospital or recovering from surgery you would not be doing that.

You may be able to file for Disability insurance.

Can you draw unemployment while you student teach?

Usually, in order to draw unemployment, you have to be actively looking for work, and be able to work should you find any. Your student teaching load probably would keep you from being able to work, and your status as a student is just icing on the "no unemployment for you" cake. Substitute teachers often are allowed to draw unemployment for days when they don't work, on the grounds that they're actually available to work, it's just that no one needed a substitute that day. But student teachers... no. You could try contacting your local unemployment office to verify; worst case is they make fun of you.
