Technically speaking yes, You can upgrade RAM, CPU and Hard drive and video cards on some. But unless you know how to work on laptops and comfortable working on then, by the time you buy the hardware and take it someone to get it upgraded, you probably could just have bought a new one :-)

How can someone Upgrade Toshiba a200 video card e.g. send of to Toshiba then what upgrades can i get?

If your laptop has the MXM type video card it can be upgraded but not without stripping the laptop down. The MXM type card fits into a slot on the motherboard (My Toshiba Sat Pro A200 has the ATI HD2400) I upgraded this to the ATI HD 3450 which was bought from ebay. If your laptop has builtin graphics such as Intels X3100 you can't upgrade it at all.

Can a Gateway laptop be up graded?

Laptops in general typically can not be upgraded much due to their compact size. A common and easy upgrade for a laptop would be to increase the memory installed. Also, the processor of almost any laptop can usually be upgraded, but usually costs a lot in labor as much of the laptop will need to be taken apart to get to it. If your laptop used to "feel fast" when it was new, but has slowed down over the years, a computer technician should be able to speed it up again by either tuning it up (malware, defrag, program removal, etc..) or by completely reinstalling your operating system.
