You won't get a battery replacement at the Genius Bar - it's not a tech
repair centre, plus Apple's MacBooks are now difficult to open. It's
unlikely you would even get a repair centre to do it while you wait
either since it is fairly time consuming. 

If you're willing to pay extra, a repair centre may do it as an
"Urgent" job and you could get the laptop back the same day (assuming
you drop it off early enough in the morning).
