I don't think that's supported. In the past, the advice has been to save
the XLSX file as a supported format (ODT or delimited file) and import that.

I recommend doing this for SPSS as well, because when I import an Excel
file directly in SPSS, it makes guesses about variable types/lengths
that I frequently don't like. I've had it guess wrong about string
length causing data loss. That seems ridiculous.

manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight
efficiently, and die gallantly. Specialization is for
