Selenium is not meant to automate that

It is possible to automate selenium with 1 plugin which I forgot its name.

We used it when I worked for a big financial institution

The plugin was to integrate or interact between mainframe and Excel VBA. 

Selenium is for the web only.

Sorry, I forgot the name of the plugin*

But you can look for automate mainframe using excel vba in google, it should come out.

If its a web based app then you can use it
However if you want to automate mainframe itself then selenium is not for that
