Yeah it should be able to run on your spec.
Dont forget to open nvidia control panel and set dota graphic's preference into NVIDIA, not intel graphics.

Set to exclusive fullscreen and dont alt tab regularly.

yes but you shouldn't play this game , not because of the performance but because this game effects mental health .

a couple years back I used to play dota on a 730m, had to run it 900p but it was smooth.
The game got a few updates since, and I am not sure if the requirements are still the same.

You "might" be able to play with the lowest settings.

I once played with my old asus pro laptop with GT 940MX, I5 7400U, Intel HD Graphic 4000 and 8GB RAM and works quite well if on very low settings. I suggest you to use this setting:
1. Disable steam overlay (shift+tab)
2. Play on 720p
3. Use exclusive fullscreen settings in dota
4. Lock your fps as the same with your monitor refresh rate

I played both on 940MX and HD 4000 and unfortunately my 940MX is broken (screen artifact). I used to have 90fps with 940MX and since May 2020 - Feb 2021 I used intel HD 4000, low settings, and have 60 fps while laning, however in teamfights it may drop to 40-30 fps but playable. This is just a reference for people with the same specs. I played on a PC now and it's a lot better.
