You can create an attribute storing a SQL CREATE TABLE statement based on the field definitions read from the Excel table, and then execute the statement with a SQLExecutor. Just be aware that the dataset (i.e. *.mdb file) must exist when executing the SQL statement to create a table.
A basic CREATE TABLE statement looks like this.
create table new_table (
name char(12),
ages integer,
province char(30),
Mark integer

Note: char(n) is an alias of text(n).
Basically FME can map every native data type of all supported database formats to FME generic data type.
