You can't: you have no direct access to the client file system, and cannot fetch files from it unless the client directly initiates the transfer. Unless the image is embedded in the spreadsheet, you can't touch it.

Think about it: if you could do that for an image, malicious sites could do that for all your files without you even noticing. Is that what you want to happen to your system?
