Besides internet you need four things:

The brains of the operation, called a hub. Use wink1 or Smart things

A wifi lock schledge or quickset. Use schledge.

A door position detector. Many brands are available and which one to get depends upon the hub you choose.

A wifi switch which mimics the momentarily contact you do when the garage open button is pushed. A device with spelling like mini memoo. I will get the exact spelling in a follow on post.

Sure you can replace the entire opener if you want. It is expensive, and not moveable to a new location.
