If I understand correctly, you want to use a MicroPython board (e.g. pyboard) as a USB Host, and plug a USB key into it, read a file off it, then write the file to the SD card?

Unfortunately MicroPython doesn't currently have support for USB host mode.

Not without USB host mode, sorry. It's a thing we'd like to add (for example, to plug a keyboard or mouse into a pyboard). Supporting USB MSC (i.e. to allow accessing flash drives) in host mode would be nice too, but it's a bit more complicated.
