Take a look at BatchConv, it is based on OpenOffice and should be able to convert the XLSX to CSV or XLS. You can call it via MATLAB system command to automate the full process.

Alternatively you can use Apache POI, but if you try to use it keep in mind that your MATLAB 2008 is running an old JRE, it might be incompatible to the latest versions of Apache POI which are able to read xlsx. In case you need to update java to use Apache POI, refer to this article
