TDP 35 W

indeed TDP

55 W
Thermal Design Power (TDP) represents the average power, in watts, the processor dissipates when operating at Base Frequency with all cores active under an Intel-defined, high-complexity workload. Refer to Datasheet for thermal solution requirements.
 
it might work since it is supposed to be compatible ( chipset )
but you may have overheating problem
not certain, that even with an adapted ventilation system, it works over time without problem
