No. They are two different sockets.

 

That said, neither of those products are really worth buying today.

The i5 you currently have would be about the same speed as that i7 (maybe worse depending on which exact i5 you have), so it wouldn't even be an upgrade. 

 

What do you do on your computer that you need an upgrade. If you do a lot of multi threaded stuff, something like the 10900 or 10850k would be a good option, or if they're out of your budget, 11700 or 10700. If you need single thread performance, 11400 or 11700 are decent options for in socket upgrades. That said, used prices for all of those chips is pretty bad and it might be a good idea to just flip your current board and CPU and just going Alder Lake instead. Knowing your budget would be nice to give you an exact recommendation.

For ~350 you could buy a 12400 and a B660 board. That would give you much better performance and be in budget.

If you flip your current board and CPU you can probably get a 12700 instead, being much faster than basically anything on the LGA 1200 socket.
