Please write in such a way that we can understand what you want.
Do you want to remove the motherboard from a laptop and use it for a desktop computer? (this is what I understand from the title)

Could it be done? Yeah, would you want to probably not considering as Kemical said the boards are model specific and none of the ports would match up in a desktop case, plus you'd need to drill holes and somehow mount the board in the desktop case which could be difficult and you'd have to rig the power button or solder from the button to the desktop case wiring.
