sorry no. you need to determine which pins are the power pins, touch two pins with a screwdriver, it the PC turns on those two pins are the pins that need the switch. once you find the right pins attach a switch.
the switches you linked to are a multi-pack and unless you need 10 a single switch is all you should buy.
Do not buy 10 if you only need 1

the switches you linked to are power switches and should be for any PC/motherboard with a 2 pin power shunt.
the motherboard in your HP is non standard, it will not fit in many cases without modification.
a standard power supply will not work with your motherboard without an adapter.
the power switch is located on a black pin block next to the RAM slots near the edge of the motherboard

the black block in the bottom right corner of the motherboard in this picture.
you can use a conductor to determine which two pins are the power pins. touch two pins with a conductor and if it turns on those are the power pins.
