    No...sorry, but the laptop BIOS are not sophisticated enough (most of the time) to allow something like that.

    Basically, I think laptops are not overclock friendly... I tried overclocking my integrated graphics core clock (FROM WINDOWS)...but everytime it said 'Test Failed' and doesn't go above 425 MHz....

    Although u can underclock (haha)
