"You can.

Create Batch File (Use UNC paths to copy - I recommend RoboCopy)
Create Scheduled Task to call batch file at certain time

robocopy C:\FolderName\ \\machinename\sharedfolder ""filename.ext"""

An alternative to a batch file / Windows scheduled task, is to use SyncBack (freeware) where you can create a profile to copy your Excel spreadsheet from the source machine to the target at a specific time.
