Is it possible to apply time history functions from file as load, to certain points in model (abaqus)?

I need to do vibration analysis of masonry building at certain points on the model. I do have numbers of time history data files (first column = time, second column = acceleration), which need to be applied at certain parts on the model (ranging from 1st floor to 3nd floor) . 

From my understanding, the time history data can be inputted in Amplitude>tabular and set the BC as acceleration.

However, is it possible to apply time history functions as load to a certain points on model (ABAQUS program)?

Helps needed.

Thank you.

Use the AMPLITUDE parameter to either CLOAD (for loading nodes) or DLOAD (for loading surfaces)
