yes athlon 64x2 series are based on AMD'S AM 2 socket and yes, it means between these and these 2 aswell...I had an athlon 64 x2 5000+ i upgraded to 5200+ and my final cpu was 5600+....those cpus were lovely really, they serverd me well, 6 or 7 years, my 5600+ is still working in the other room...

Even if you could, it probably isn't worth the cost unless it is like really dirt cheap.
