Yes, you certainly can copy selected text from Word and paste it in Excel.
I don't understand why you would want to do it, though.  Word has the means
of taking an Excel worksheet and converting it to a table.  You can then
select the table and format it so that it looks nice.  Excel has no easy way
of taking text and converting it to spreadsheet data.  Word is a word
processor and Excel handles data; they are two different things.
