[Koha] Connecting to an outside database for borrower info

Members of our Society have the ability to borrow items from the library.
I am given a quarterly update of the membership list that I convert into a
file that will upload to Koha. My colleagues were wondering if there was a
way to avoid this process and connect directly to the membership database
(Spektrix). It's new, and I don't have access to it, so I don't know
anything about it.
It seems to me that this won't work because the loan information is stored
in Koha.
Has anyone tried to connect to an outside database for borrowers? I'm
imagining this would involve a complicated interface.
