Buy a PCMCIA card with external antenna provisions, it will be difficult to attach one to one without them.

Can it be done? For most cards the answer is probably yes. OTOH, you'll need to buy the connector, and have the tools and skills to connect it to the very small components on the PCB, assuming you get the card apart without destroying it.
