Yes, it should work fine.

Are you upgrading for a reason? I'm not sure you'll see a big improvement personally.

I am want to upgrade the CPU and i am putting 2 more Gb's of ram. i don't think i can do anymore to the computer without putting in a new motherboard which i don't want to do at this time. I know it wont be a big gain but it should get me some. I record music and it should let me run s few more tracks and run a couple more plugins.

I'd try to add the memory without changing the CPU. There just isn't going to be that big of a difference...even if it is only $80 or so.
