No

GPUs are not user-upgradable in laptops, they are soldered to the motherboard. You'll have to buy a new laptop.

Depends on the model, but generally the MX series and other lower end GPUs are soldered to the motherboard. Only very high end GPUs generally get treated to the add-on card experience. Even then they are rarely upgradable outside a generation or two, if at all.

Ultrabooks and other slim designs also generally have the GPU soldered to the board.

Most of the time upgrading a laptop GPU is not possible. That's one reason why I kind of dislike gaming laptops. But hey.... It would be hard to cool a much more power hungry GPU on the same old cooling system.
