Let me answer this question in a couple of ways that may be relevant to the intent of your question.
First, yes, the Core i7-920 CPU may be used in a laptop, just as any other CPU may. All that is required is that the motherboard be designed for it and have the ability to dissipate the heat it generates effectively.
Next, can you replace your current CPU with a Core i7-920 in your laptop? Probably not. The laptop was designed around a certain CPU and the i7-920 is probably beyond its operational specifications in regard to the amount of power supplied for the CPU's operations, the ability to dissipate the heat generated by its operation (take note of the size of the heatsink and fan that come from the factory with the i7-920), and the fact that the desired CPU requires an LGA-1366 socket in which to mount. Most modern laptop CPUs are soldered to the motherboard and therefore not field-replaceable, most definitely not field-upgradeable. To remove the CPU that is surface-mounted requires special equipment and training, not something you can pick up in the garage or high school computer club.
The best advice that I can give you is what I give to my clients: if you want to upgrade your laptop's CPU, upgrade your laptop to a newer model. (This is also part of my issue with game consoles: the technology inside them is "stuck" at that level until a new console comes out to supersede it. Glory be to desktop computers!)
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, feel free to drop me a line. If you happen to be in northeastern Kansas, let me know and I will be glad to speak with you through my store.

Yes, they function with the same processor.
A core i7 920 processor from an Intel dx58s0 desktop motherboard has gone bad what processor would you recommend for the replacement?
The Core i7-920 runs on the LGA 1366 socket, with a clock speed of 2.67 GHz and a power consumption of 130 watts. A recommended replacement is the Core i7-950, at about $300 from Newegg. It has a 3.06 GHz clock speed and a power consumption of 130 watts, which makes it an ideal replacement for your i7-920.
