Bam,
DONT BUY A NEW LAPTOP. When you call HP they will say 750 or so for a screen.
Go to http://www.screentekinc.com . They sell laptop screens for a fraction of what major laptop makers sell them for. HP charges so much so you buy a new laptop from them.

Yes it's possible to order replacement screens for HP notebooks but the odds are greatly in favor if the part being more expensive than the laptop is worth (last time I priced a replacement monitor for a laptop it was around $800). If you're in a bind you should be able to connect a normal computer monitor to your laptop assuming there's a video out connection (there usually is), although admittedly this will severely limit your mobility.

Shrt answer, Yes.
Better answer, you need to remove the plastic bezel and find out EXACTLYwhat screen is in it (like is it a Sharp 73H7210) and look for that precise LCD.
In many cases you can find refurbs or pulls, which is WAY cheaper than a new one. Always google the part number, don't try ordering the part from HP themselves, WAY too expensive.
Some places will even offer you a discount if you "exchange" your broken LCD for the replacement.
I use surplustraders.net when looking for an LCD as they have the largest selection.

It is possible to find replacement parts. Go to their website and get the phone number for their tech support.
Be advised, they charge a lot for a screen, if the laptop is a couple years old it may be smarter to get a new laptop than sink $400 dollars into your old one.
