no, the appletv box only use storage for apps not for media


you can share the movie from a computer and have appletv access it Use Home Sharing to share media from a computer to other devices - Apple Support


or you can add it to a NAS and use the NAS makers app to play it on the appletv box, I do this with movies on my synology NAS


you can also use apps like VLC from app store on the appletv box to access UPNP and other network types to access media that way
