When I save word and excel documents onto my Mac, is there a way to automatically save the documents in iCloud Drive?

When I save word and excel documents onto my MacBook Air version 10.11.1, is there a way to automatically save the documents in iCloud Drive? I want to be able to access documents across all of my devices without manually saving them to both my computer and then again to the iCloud Drive.

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

I do not know for sure about Microsoft products (which I assume you are using since you reference Word and Excel). But given this page from Microsoft's site, it looks like they have their own cloud and they would tend to push that.

You could, of course, use Apple's Pages and Numbers products, which certainly can (and do) default to saving on iCloud Drive.
