Hi,
Yes, it is possible to replace the M2 SSD with a higher capacity one (no limit to capacity)
So you need an M2 PCIe NVMe SSD of your preferred brand.
On page 46 of service manual you can see the steps to install the drive.

You will need to reinstall the OS which you can do by creating installation media before replacing drive
