No -- the CPU is soldered to the system board; the only upgrade is a replacement system board (which will have the same generation CPU you currently have).
You'll find i7 boards for this model, but they're all dual-core, not quad. They're also on the order of $250+, money probably better spent on a replacement system than on upgrading this one.
