    AFAIK it depends on the specific make and model as to how easily you'll be able to find components and then fit them yourself.
    I haven't tried personally but I can imagine due to the compact design of most laptops it would be a challenge in most cases if possible at all, and IIRC I read that if the graphics chip is on board (soldered to the motherboard) you've got no chance.
    Best bet is to consult manual/manufacturer and of course online for information relating to your model of laptop.
    Cheers
