Hello, it is a laptop so difficult to replace the CPU.. 

 

In your maintenance and service guide, page 22, I see the Core i7-2630QM is not indicates compatible with your PC:

However, Core i7-2620m was soled in similar PC, and have the same TDP (maximum power consumption) so if you really want to disassemble your laptop and try the replacement, you have more chance with the 2620m. 

If I have been answer to your question please accept it as a solution 🙂
