    Yes you can. It looks like your laptop takes a standard size 3945ABG wifi card that takes two antennas. Can you confirm this in the device manager?

    There are N wifi card that take two antenna like 5100 wifi card. It is also possible to add another antenna and i did this for my TX laptop. I upgraded it to a 5300 wifi card.
