You absolutely can. It's called drive cloning. For a laptop, you'll need to get a USB sata adapter, the new HD, and some disk cloning software. There are some commercial products such as Norton Ghost, and some free ones like Ghost4Linux.
Here's a video guide on the basic process
(this was sort of a rushed answer, but if you have any questions feel free to ask and I'll answer more in depth)
Go to office depot, buy a USB to IDE/SATA converter.
Remove hard drive form laptop (normally not more then 3 screws and it should come right out.
Plug harddrive into adapter and then into computer. It will mount the drive.
Move your crap off of it.
