Yes it will:
Start on p. 38 for rear cover removal. Be careful not to stretch out the rubber feet.
A PM981 will work. That is likely what HP would supply if the laptop is ordered with one.
M.2 slot circled in red

You don't need to change anything. Don't make any changes in the BIOS just install the NVME M.2 in the M.2 slot.
AHCI means SATA so I really question if anybody said set AHCI for an NVME M.2 SSD. It would make no sense.
Are you having problems? What are you trying to do? Happy to give specific help.
