I have an Acer Aspire E 15 Model: E5-575G-728Q with no backlit, can i upgrade to a backlit keyboard?

Unfortunately you cannot.

Unfortunately you cannot.

My motherboard does not have that socket?

Nothing I can find on it says it allows for adding that kind of keyboard. Most laptops are like that though. It is easier to go from a lit one to a non-lit one versus going the other way.

You can replace non backlight keyboard with the keyboard with backlight for Acer Aspire e5-575G.
Try to see your motherboard for place for connecting the backlight cable of keyboard.
If you have it, you need to buy a keyboard with backlight (costs about 15-25EUR), solder only 4 parts and that's all.
You can turn on/off by Fn+F9.
