Theoretically you could, but replacing it is not an easy job, if you don't know exactly what you are doing you could end up breaking your laptop.
Here is a list compatible CPU's:

Compatible means they fit in the same socket (Socket P), however it is certainly not guaranteed that the highest rated CPU's will actually work. As I understand the T9500 will work for sure, higher rated CPU's might not work.

Compatible CPUs must:
-Have the same or lower TDP
-Have the same socket
Even if they have those two things, they still might not work if:
-They use a different lithography
-They use a different generation of core design
^ These factors depend on whether the laptop's BIOS has support for later generation CPUs, which OEMs like Dell don't typically bother to add. You could contact Dell for a complete list of supported CPUs.
