Does Excel (2016) create a SQL Query plan when connecting to an existing (SQL) connection from within Excel? Are there any disadvantages of using Excel to access database versus using a stored procedure in SQL Server?

No, Excel does not create query plans. It simply sends a query to SQL Server, and the database engine creates the execution plan.
