Im getting ready to purchase a laptop for video editing but i think the resokution is 1380 by something im not sure. If my laptops screen resolution isnt 1080p , can i still edit and render in 1080p and upload it to youtube? Very new with the computer thing

It most certainly can, in fact if your laptop was powerful enough, it could edit 8K video. So as long as your laptop is up to the task of editing the video, there is no reason that it can't be used to edit the video and upload it to youtube

It's true you can edit it, but you can't really review it to see how it looks before you upload it.

That is where you just display it as single frames to check to see if there are any artifacts in the frames etc
