It's not possible to just integrate one application into another. otnt is correct though - if you just replace the PDF under the MobileSheets storage location (listed under Settings->Storage->Set MobileSheets Storage Location), then you wouldn't need to delete and reimport. Another option is to right-click or long press the song, tap the three dots at the top right and select "Swap File". You can then swap in a new version of the PDF you want to use.
MobileSheets has to copy every file that is imported into the storage location listed under Settings->Storage->Set MobileSheets Storage Location due to file permissions with UWP applications. Microsoft designed their API so that applications are not allowed to access files unless the user has explicitly granted access to the folder containing those files or the files themselves. So that means MobileSheets only has permission to access a file if it is under the storage location. If you import a file from within the storage location, no copy is made and the file is used as-is. If you import it from a different folder, the file will be copied into the storage location. So if you are relying on OneDrive to synchronize files, you could set your storage location to the OneDrive folder before importing. Just be aware that this can cause interesting problems if the structure or contents of the OneDrive folder changes as the MobileSheets database is going to save the location of the files you import.
