Yes, 读书 (dú shū) can be used in place of 上学 (shàng xué) for "v. to go to school." Both phrases mean the same thing, but there is a slight difference in usage. 读书 specifically refers to the act of going to school to study or read, while 上学 is a more general term that can also include the act of going to school for other activities, such as attending classes, participating in extracurricular activities, etc. In terms of usage, 上学 is more commonly used in everyday conversation, while 读书 is more commonly used in written language or in a more formal context.

There is a difference.
- 看书 is "read a book";
- 读书 means read a book too, but it also has the meaning "to go to school, to study".
