Comment 3 for bug 184627

It does that by default... It embeds an entire spreadsheet object into
your writer document. I don't know if it has the ability to copy just
the data out of the cells and paste them into fake spreadsheet table
form of writer. Even if it could do that the data it copied over might
not display correctly due to cells in spreadsheets containing formulas,
etc, that as far as I know writer tables don't support.
