No, there is no video slot on the motherboard. Here is the Motherboard Specifications page: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-pavilion-all-in-one-pc-27-xa0000i/23302616/model/27090308/do...
Look at the section titled "Expansion slots" for this information.

Geekster,
Thanks for your help with my question and thanks for the diagram of the mainboard. There does appear to be a graphics card connector where the UHD 630 is attached to the mainboard. Are you saying that this card cannot be removed and replaced with a better GPU? -----Thanks!

You are welcome, @DeanOnGaming!
I see the Graphics Card connector on the motherboard. However, HP has their motherboards made to their specifications. They use them in many different models with different configurations. Your motherboard is not engineered to use a Graphics Card or it would be in the specifications. Here is the Interactive Part Locator: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06521187
