No, the data table cannot be edited. In fact, XL has rather limited
support for it. Instead, you may want to simulate the effect of a data
table. See

Excel's chart data tables are not very flexible. The data in them must
somehow appear in the chart (although you can hide a chart series by
choosing None for line, marker, border, fill, or whatever), and any
series in the chart must appear in the table. The formatting is also not
too flexible.

I always suggest to people that they make a table in the cells near a
chart, so they can format it how they like, and include whatever data
they want.

Tushar Mehta has a few suggestions about data tables on his web site:
