Seems that using readtable and plot functions (and maybe datetime function), you can plot it. If possible, I would like to suggest sharing your sample Excel file here.

As Akira says, use readtable and plot. In recent versions, readtable will create a datetime variable automatically, in earlier versions you may need to convert from text to datetime. In R2016b or later, convert the table to a timetable. You have one time variable and two data series, so there are various ways you might want to make a plot. Using ttplot from the File Exchange, this:
>> t = readtable('SP index.xls');
>> tt = table2timetable(t);
>> ttplot(tt)
gives me this:

You need R2016b or later to use timetables. But "However, ttplot also works with a table that contains a datetime or duration variable, and so is also useful for R2014b-R2016a."

Hello!
I have a similar problem. I try to read my measurement file recorded in the format Date Time Current: 03.06.2017 03:15:45:878301 643.1426. The file with the data is attached. I tried to apply the mentioned above commands.
>> t = readtable('01.xls');
>> tt = table2timetable(t);
>> ttplot(tt)
The execution of the first command gave me table 330x2 in the next form.
Column1 Column2
____________________________ __________
'03.06.2017 03:15:45:878301' '643.1426'
'03.06.2017 03:15:45:888320' '643.1418'
'03.06.2017 03:15:45:898340' '643.1401'
The attemt to apply command table2timetable(t) gave the next mistake.
Error using table2timetable (line 58)
Input table must contain datetime or duration vector for row times.
Any help, please. I am using Matlab 2018b.

Before plotting it, you need to convert each column to appropriate variable type. The following is an example:
t = readtable('01.xls');
% Convert Column1 to datetime, and Column2 to double
t.Column1 = datetime(t.Column1,'InputFormat','dd.MM.yyyy hh:mm:ss:SSS');
t.Column2 = str2double(t.Column2);
tt = table2timetable(t);
plot(tt.Column1,tt.Column2)
