Yes, it's possible for Flex to load Microsoft Excel data. However, it's not easy. You have to write a custom parser for the .xls file format. You can pull the raw binary data in via URLLoader setting it's dataFormat to DataFormat.BINARY, and then parse the .xls data into something usable for the Flex client.
