Yes, Install mysql on a local box (same OS as your provider and preferably the same MySql version), create and populate your tables and then FTP the files that reside in the mysql data directory. There will be 3 files associated with each table .MYD (Data file) .MYI (Index file) .frm (schema/description file).
