can I build a clone of HP Pavilion Elite m9040n Desktop PC?

the reason to build over by it to save some money now, but moreover have something i can up-grade later piece by piece.
ideally i want the case as small as possible, but for cooling prolly shouldn't go smaller than a mid-tower.
things it could lose:
wireless (my router is already next to were it would sit)
the media card reader (i have a usb one that works fine and i don't use it that often)
the light scribe on the DVD RW drive
