It is very unlikely that you can upgrade because in laptops it is common that the CPU is soldered down to the motherboard plus they have special cooling which is hard to remove. So, to conclude, I don't think it is possible to upgrade your processor. Sorry.
90% chance no. The cpu is probably soldered to the board. Taking apart laptops is very, very hairy anyway. Tiny proprietary screws. Ribbon cables, antenna, keyboards removal etc.... No guarantees that it works when reassembled.
