Can I change to a dual band with wifi card for my laptop

[Rattlehead63]

I have a HP Pavilion Notebook - 17-g192dx (ENERGY STAR) and I want to know if it is possible to change my wireless card to a dual band wifi card. I have been searching for help with this for awhile and get mixed answers. I see products that say they are compatable with my laptop but have also been told that it isn't possible. Any help would be very appreciated! Sorry if there is already a thread on this subject.
