Is it possible to break a laptop from the inside by leaning on it?

I tripped while I was standing and typing and my wrist slammed into the area to the left of the touchpad. Now the mother board beeps every time I turn on the computer and gives text on a black screen. I've tried every option and nothing works. I heard what sounded like something popping or snapping when I leaned on it, I really think i might have popped out the hard drive or something similar. Is this possible? It is a Dell.
