TestComplete is a 32-bit application so it needs 32-bit database drivers. Try installing the 32-bit version of Office drivers from here and see it it helps:

HKosova, do you know if DDT Excel drivers instantiated in a Keyword test using the Data Driven Loop operation "close" the connection when the loop is done?
I believe the connections are closed at the end of the keyword test, not the loop. It's also possible to force close a connection by using the Call Object Method operation:
Object: Fully-qualified variable name, such as KeywordTests.Test1.Variables.MyVar or TestProject1.Variables.MyVar
Method: Disconnect
Ah, I missed that it was a 64-bit office installation. Yeah, that would make a huge difference.
