A script is likely to be your best option for this. CSVDE can only be used to create AD objects, not to modify them.
Here's a sample to get you started:

For certain types of bulk changes you can use ADModify.NET, but this probably won't be suitable for your requirement where you have the details in a spreadsheet. But in case you are interested you can find more information on ADModify.NET here:

I'm probably too late for this one but it might be useful for someone else:

The script above will allow you to update AD attributes from a CSV file.
