No - since CPU support is designed into the motherboard on a physical level, you can't do that with any laptop.

I'm curious as to why you'd want to replace Intel with AMD, though - in the current generation of processors, Intel are slapping AMD silly in every area: performance, performance per clock, power efficiency, price...don't get me wrong; I'm an AMD guy through and through, but there comes a point when you have to say "enough is enough". Intel laptops work 100% out of the box with Linux, whereas AMD laptops are full of strange wireless cards, dodgy one-off impossible-to-find-drivers-for chips here and there...and when you do, the ATi/AMD graphics drivers are a pile of crap.
