Is it a NAS drive, i.e. one that just needs a hard wired ethernet connection? If so yes, you can connect it to the Google mesh router's LAN port. But if it's a regular portable hard drive with a USB connection then no, there's no USB port on the Google router/points, obviously.

Thanks to those who chimed in. I received my answer. I'm looking at a dedicated NAS. Have one ordered.
Thanks again!
