That's really up to the system BIOS. Your laptop does support a removable processor, at least.

The socket your board uses is FCBGA1023. Search around for processors that use that exact same socket, and you can go from there. If you put a new CPU in and it doesn't work, however, it's probably that the laptop board's BIOS does not support it (in which case there isn't much you can do other than update the BIOS and hope that the update supports other processors).
