You could put a disc fork on, but by the time you bought the disc fork and a decent front disc brake, it would cost half as much as that bike is worth new. You would also need a disc-ready wheel in the front. This would probalby bring the cost to 3/4ths of the cost of the bike.
You're better off installing good rim brakes (which are essentially on par with non-high end cable operated disc brakes), or selling the bike and buying one which has disc brakes already on it.
