That's a good question -- for HP, not Intel.

In order for a processor to be upgraded,

• The existing processor must be socketed. Many laptops do not socket their processors, making them almost impossible to replace.
• The new processor must be supported by the motherboard's power, cooling and BIOS subsystems.

Only the manufacturer of the motherboard can answer (all of) these questions.
