No! DDR2 is different from DDR3 and will not work
If you are unsure of the motherboard download speccy and figure out what motherboard it is

As all have said the sockets are different and keyed differently. Google your motherboard brand and model and go to the mfr website if you can't find your manual and check what RAM you need.
If you want to add 8GB more it would be best just to buy a kit so you don't have to worry about matching the speed and timings. SO if you want to add 8GB more to go to 16GB just buy a 16GB kit (2x8GB).
