It's called upscale and you generally don't want to do it. Image quality will be much worse than you expect. Better practice is to upload bigger images and downscale them. Say, for Retina screens you want 2x the size so you upload 1000x1000px images and then downscale from it using pre-defined image sizes or plugins that do resizing on the fly, like this one https://wordpress.org/plugins/fly-dynamic-image-resizer/
