It is littile bit tricky. You can do it in such a way.

  1. Show check-box for each record. 
  2. Get ID of selected recordsd
  3. Pass all id in URL (Add All ids in String by &)
  4. On the next VF use contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel#myfile.xls" and get all ids in string. 
  5. Spilt String where & is get and add it in a set.
  6. Get all contacts and display on the VF.
  7. It will generate en excelSheet
