Power BI doesn't work like that. It expects its data sources to have a simple structure, ideally a very narrow table (few columns) of arbitrary length (number of rows doesn't matter)

You can try to transform by skipping rows and unpivoting, but it will be easier to prepare the data in a usable format to begin with.
