According to the specs you should be able to. Course not knowing what DDR3 you have YMMV.
Specs MSI P55-CD53:

You want to use memory that does not have a voltage above 1.65V as the memory controller is on die.
DDR3 1066/1333/1600* (OC

If you have not already purchased memory, i would highly recommend this memory:

Or this:

P55 is really overclocking ddr3 SUPER nicely. The ripjaws 2000mhz can hit some very impressive clocks, while the 1600mhz has great timings.
I wouldnt recommend that corsair for P55 due to it being 1.8V

Something you could try is dropping it down to 1333mhz and seeing if it will run stable at 1.65V when you get it.
The onboard memory controller shouldnt be at 1.65v or more, as it can "burn up" the controller.
Cant i just put the ram in and push the oc button? lol i have no idea how to overclock manually i will end up burning it up for sure

Putting it to 1333mhz would be downclocking, not overclocking since its rated for 1600mhz. Your motherboard manual should explain how to set memory clocks.
