I have a situation where I want to load the Excel file dynamically, and the excel file have different columns or even worksheet name. Any idea how I could approach this? I believe there's no way to modify the meta data (specifically the mapping) in the data flow.

Yes there is no way you can modify the metadata automatically, especially if the column names keep changing. It's okay if the file name changes but if the column names keeps changing the mappings doesn't happen and eventually leading to a package failure..
