Often, yes. Use the Key Code affixed to your current laptop... I would
attempt a Repair installation. It leaves your applications as workable
copies without reinstalling them.
http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm

If a Repair doesn't work, a Reinstallation can be done and several
applications will need to be re-installed.

You may need to make a current copy by slipstreaming your old XP disc.
