Can you upgrade your macbook pro gpu from the radeon 455 to a radeon 460?

I have a 15-inch macbook pro with 2.7 GHz intel core i7 and a radeon pro 455. im sure ill be stuck with this labtop for a bit but i want to experience a better quality of gaming. turns out the model can come with a radeon pro 455 or 460. i have a radeon pro 455 but can you upgrade your macbook pro by simply going to the apple store and buy the better graphics? and if you know, how much would it probably cost?

MacBook Pro TouchBar and Touch ID, macOS Sierra (10.12.6)

No. MacBook Pros have never had separate, replaceable graphics cards like found in desktop computers. To save space all graphics hardware components are soldered to and integral with the logic board--no sockets for easy swaps. What you have today is your "forever" graphics, until you get a new computer.
