    I can't think of any reason why this wouldn't work. Check to make sure that the position of screw holes on the motherboard are the same (pretty sure they are). It'll be a bit of a pain to strip the system down to get the motherboard out but other parts are basically identical between the two so basically you will be turning your laptop into a Precision 5530 if you do this.
