I don't think you can do Dynamic datasources in CFMX. At least during a migration of CF5 to CFMX, the code analyzer said it was no longer possible. Is there a new way to do it?

I believe you can make a new datasource on the fly and point it to the Excel document. I was going to make this datasource and then use coldfusion to pull from one datasource (Excel) into my other datasource (mySql). I'm not sure how you would od the cvs. most likely just a really robust parser.
