Answer 1 :
You could, yes. Excelsior is regionally accredited, which means you're eligible to apply to schools like Indiana U for your MBA. And your military service will mean a lot. If you otherwise meet the admissions standards for Indiana, you could get in.
Answer 2 :
Excelsior College is one of 3 entirely online public colleges in the US, along with Thomas Edison State College in New Jersey and Charter Oak State College in Connecticut. Graduates of Charter Oak State College have gotten in to many impressive graduate programs, including Boston University School of Law, Carnegie Mellon University, Columbia University, Georgetown University School of Law, Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Tufts University, Yale University and many more. (Source: http://www.charteroak.edu/alumni/acceptances.cfm ) Because they are very similar schools, it's likely that a degree from Excelsior would make you eligible for just as many quality grad schools as a Charter Oak degree, including Indiana University.
Answer 3 :
There is one thing universal about online mba degree or most of the online programs: the eligibility conditions for most online management programs including an online MBA program from even reputed universities like the Indiana University are not as demanding as that for regular mba programs. Now, considering that you have earned your formal educational degree from Excelsior College, there is no reason why Indiana will not accept you...just relax and approach with full confidence...there is no reason why you should be worried...:)
