Yes, you can do this in similar fashion.

Upload an excel File
Read the uploaded file and return the data and bind a grid.
Allow the user to modifiy the data
Post the data back (or use ajax to post the data)
Write the new data in a new excel File and Download it.

You can use the same EPPlus library or NPOI library to read/write. Also you can use Excel DataReader to read the excel file.

Usually in the web version its prefered not to use any com component. If your existing code is not using and com component you can reuse the same for web version.
