Maybe, but what about "importing" the data directly?

Get the PostgreSQL ODBC driver

    http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/psqlodbc/projdisplay.php

and install it on your Windows box. Add the ODBC support functions on
the database side. Make sure the Windows system has access to the
database (pg_hba.conf, username/password). Create a DSN and access the
database directly from Excel.
