I doubt it....

I haven't tried it but Intel GMA950 is too weak even for simpler games than H5. Even if you somehow manage to run the game (which i doubt since its a laptop graphic card mainly and those are not highly supported) you will have very sloppy performance that will be close to unplayable.

Remember that laptops are not meant to be gaming stations...

Not as it stands right now. One of the Mac programmers at Freeverse is claiming that the Mac version will run at 60fps on a MacBook with the GMA950 at low graphics settings, but says the PC version won't run properly on similar hardware.

I think that no - however I remember that here existed adopted exe (from beta) with lower requirements - this one cannot be patched and I have no idea if it's still downloadable. Shortcut to it was on official ubisoft forum.

Well it can. I'm play H5 HOF with that and it's perfectly nice. The visual quality is still very nice.
My specs: Pentium Dualcore 2.66, 512RAM, Video GMA950.

Oh yes...the nightmares of hardware compatibility...

I remember when I got my copy of Heroes V original a few months ago and the game wouldn't run because the card I was using wasn't supported...
