You certainly can.
And, more will be available in the coming months.

I am sure I can find some laptops which have 8gb of ram build in and running

3 months ago I just help someone with a Acer with that kind of setup.

?? why should the memory and cpu be faster in the same environment if you
use 64bit instead of 32bit? This is not true.
The only difference regarding the hardware is, that the 64bit environment
can make use of more memory if it is available.
For all other improvements you will need software that supports 64bit as i
did write in my message with the audio editing example.;-) In this case you
are right, but a normal user won't get in such situations often.
in my opinion one should decide to buy a 32 bit version if he has some older
hardware devices or virtual drivers, that do not support 64bit.
If this is not the case go for 64 bit as it is the same price and may be
faster in certain situations!
all the best,
Martin
