    There is no direct way to import data in EXCEL with images, but you can import EXCEL data without image, you can use SQLBulkcopy class of C# that will help you to import it.
    checkout below code

    protected void Upload(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    //Upload and save the file
    string excelPath = Server.MapPath("~/Files/") + Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
    FileUpload1.SaveAs(excelPath);

    string conString = string.Empty;
    string extension = Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
    switch (extension)
    {
    case ".xls": //Excel 97-03
    conString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Excel03ConString"].ConnectionString;
    break;
    case ".xlsx": //Excel 07 or higher
    conString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Excel07+ConString"].ConnectionString;
    break;

    }
    conString = string.Format(conString, excelPath);
    using (OleDbConnection excel_con = new OleDbConnection(conString))
    {
    excel_con.Open();
    string sheet1 = excel_con.GetOleDbSchemaTable(OleDbSchemaGuid.Tables, null).Rows[0]"TABLE_NAME"].ToString();
    DataTable dtExcelData = new DataTable();

    //[OPTIONAL]: It is recommended as otherwise the data will be considered as String by default.
    dtExcelData.Columns.AddRange(new DataColumn[3] { new DataColumn("Id", typeof(int)),
    new DataColumn("Name", typeof(string)),
    new DataColumn("Salary",typeof(decimal)) });

    using (OleDbDataAdapter oda = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [" + sheet1 + "]", excel_con))
    {
    oda.Fill(dtExcelData);
    }
    excel_con.Close();

    string consString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["constr"].ConnectionString;
    using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(consString))
    {
    using (SqlBulkCopy sqlBulkCopy = new SqlBulkCopy(con))
    {
    //Set the database table name
    sqlBulkCopy.DestinationTableName = "dbo.tblPersons";

    //[OPTIONAL]: Map the Excel columns with that of the database table
    sqlBulkCopy.ColumnMappings.Add("Id", "PersonId");
    sqlBulkCopy.ColumnMappings.Add("Name", "Name");
    sqlBulkCopy.ColumnMappings.Add("Salary", "Salary");
    con.Open();
    sqlBulkCopy.WriteToServer(dtExcelData);
    con.Close();
    }
    }
    }
    }
