I do not find any evidence that this series supports an active stylus.
====================
If you wish to do so,
If your computer has a touchscreen,
When an active stylus is not an option on your machine,
Consider a Passive Stylus / Pen
Capacitive / Passive pen is not the same thing as an active stylus, of course.
Passive pen works like your finger on the touchscreen.

Greetings,
A friend has this active pen:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09SB2632R?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
and it does work on this laptop model. I was wondering if the HP's G3 pen (rechargeable & with the buttons) would be a better solution.

You can certainly listen to your friend.
HP does not provide non-HP solutions for pens.
The information to which I have any direct access is limited to public records.
According to what I can find in the service manual and my notes, this series does not support a stylus.
?
The G3 pen is intended for use with an Elitebook (business class system).
