I hope this answers your question:

1. Write a loop over the rows using Pandas library; you might find https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.23/generated/pandas.read_excel.html and How to iterate over rows in a DataFrame in Pandas? interesting.
2. Within every iteration save the corresponding picture into a folder (maybe name them with your Pandas index); Refer to python save image from url to learn how to save a picture from a URL.
3. Use XlsxWriter library to put them on their respective cell; see an example at https://xlsxwriter.readthedocs.io/example_images.html
