Alienware Laptop Keyboard to USB Possible

[Pbasco]

Hey I really liked the Keyboard on my Alienware 17 but I sold It and built a desktop. Is it possible to just take the base keyboard from the laptop and plug it in via usb? I'm planning on getting this keyboard http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-For-Dell-Alienware-M17X-R5-Series-Laptop-US-Keyboard-Components-Backlit/291664337841?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D9608b1aaeaf14df483e823f02b75ad59%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D301869982471.
