Can I upgrade attached USB2.0 port in HP G42-357TU to USB3.0?

Hi,

 

I bought my HP G42-357TU Notebook PC for more than 2years. Recently my notebook cought in a accident and the USB2.0 port attached at right side of the PC broken down. Now I have to order a new USB port to get that broken one replaced.

 

So, I just wanted to know, is there any possibility that this port can be upgraded to USB3.0 (even with some additional h/w) if yes, can someone please suggest me how much it will cost me in Pune, India
