If 'dij' is your dissimilarity matrix as a 'dist' object (special lower triangular representation) then this will write it out for you: write.csv(as.matrix(dij), file = "foo.csv") If 'dij' is a square matrix, then write.csv(dij, file = "foo.csv") will do it. I haven't used Excel for a while, but when I did, it had a restriction of 256 columns. If this restriction is still in place, the above file won't fit into Excel if you have more than 255 samples.
