Answer 1

If you're using only SimpleXLSX.php - it's impossible. example source

If you're using additional files like SimpleXLSXStyle.php, SimpleXLSXWorkbook.php, SimpleXLSXWorksheet.php - you could save it in some directory and then retrieve it(create, save into temp dir, retrieve, delete from temp dir). example source

The final answer it's possible or not would be done after researching of the SimpleXLSX library files in your project.
