Not in the "upgrade" sense. Upgrading a 2000 means
unsoldering two fine-pitch memory ICs and soldering
another two back on. Unless you have the skill and
equipment to do this, this isn't something you want
to do.
Another way of upgrading is replacing the main logic
board with that of a 2100. Instructions for how to do
this are here:

Since you're in the UK, I'd suggest getting in touch
with Russ Bravo, he will probably have such a board.
