I don't know that that's possible, at least not in any usable way. I would retrack the vocals.

Do you have the multitracks? If so, map the tempo using Beat Detective and you can re-record the music in sync with the vocals.

If it's a stereo mix:
Vocal removal 101

You can also "somewhat" do it using PT alone but it wont be as effective. Read through this.

Hope that helps.

I was listening to a song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XuFKHpU2jg listen the intro part from start to 0:33 sec.

That is a sample from this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk-H3oRiuNg 0:30
and i don't know if they re-recorded the vocals and piano or they use the original recording.
