No, there's currently no such support, because this is a laptop and those are not yet supported by coreboot at all. This is due to technical reasons, for instance most laptops have a so-called "embedded controller" which needs to be supported and which is usually undocumented.

440BX + 82371AB are more or less supported per se (with several TODOs still missing though), but unfortunately this is a laptop, so currently not an option.
