Add one, no.
You can upgrade the existing PCIe NVMe Value 2280 M.2 SSD to a 1TB unit with the same specification type.

You have options: (see the "Maintenance and Service Guide" from here: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-15.6-inch-laptop-pc-15-e2000/2100372089/model/2100376551/man... ) you could upgrade your existing 7mm hard drive -if it is an HDD for an SSD, and then you got one M.2 PCIe NVMe slot to install a solid state drive.
If you are happy with your primary drive's performance (assuming that is the standard SATA 7mm hard drive), I would consider installing a 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe card such as this one: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-970-EVO-Plus-MZ-V7S1T0B/dp/B07MFZY2F2/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3RMSA1UBX6MPS&k....
As per your laptop's manual, quote: "Internal card expansion One M.2 slot for solid-state drive (7th and 8th generation Intel Core processors)" (emphasis added)
The latter option is easier since you wouldn't have to clone your existing primary drive to transfer your operating system and files etc. to the new SSD.
Hope this helps!
