Running Excel Javascript API without opening Excel?

Is it possible to run code from the Excel Javascript API without opening Excel? I'm not looking to use this in a server context, I'd just like to be able to run a Javascript script that interacts with the document from the command line.

Thanks for any input, it's greatly appreciated!

You might want to check into Working with Excel in Microsoft Graph which has a JavaScript SDK. See Microsoft Graph SDKs overview for more info.

Sorry, but this cannot be done. The Office JavaScript Library cannot initialize without getting information from a containing Office app, in which the JavaScript engine is embedded.
