Optimus is only licensed of specific laptop makes and models: -

http://www.nvidia.com/object/optimus_technology.html


Drivers are available on that link but those who have tried to install these Optimus drivers by modifying the installer .INF are faced with a text overlay covering the screen saying this is a demo only and making the display unusable.

So the answer to your question is NO - Optimus can only be run of the approved models listed in that link.
