Yes -- the abtab utilities I linked to above. The abtab_cat utility should allow you to pass parameters identifying the input as XLS and the output as CSV (or at least tab-delimited, which is easy enough to convert).

The syntax will be something like the following (untested):

Code:
abtab_cat --in xls://filename.xls --out tab://filename.tab
