You cannot unless you first load the data in a database. You can use a 
temporary in memory database like this:

fields = [Field('one'), Field('two'), Field('three'), ...]
temp_db = cache.ram('tmp_db',lambda: 
DAL('sqlite:memory').define_table('mytable',*fields)._db, None)

temp_db.mytable.truncate()
temp_db.mytable.insert(....)
form = SQLFORM.grid(temp_db.mytable)
