I've got a system that is generating HTML documents with a table and then
opening them in Excel. This works just fine, Excel is converting the tables
into a spreadsheet without problem and preserving the HTML formatting.

But now I'm being asked to pass formulas into these sheets in certain places
instead of values. Is there any notataion that I can use in the HTML table to
pass a formula to Excel instead of a value?

Thanks in advance.

You cannot take HTML content a produce formulas out of nothing. Why not
create a second workbook with cellinks to the original Excel document?
