The Read ascii points plugin can import X/Y coordinates and draw points or lines. So you have to convert your grid system positions into appropriate X/Y coordinates, which you can then import with the plugin.
There is sadly not much documentation for the plugin, but I think it's not too complicated and with some trial and error you should get into it. Maybe Excel or Calc can do this easily and a CSV export is probably what the plugin can read.
See https://docs.librecad.org/en/2.2.0_a/ref/menu.html#plugins

I've used this plugin many times with CSV exported files, the only problem I found with it is that my locale uses coma as decimal separator and have to change to English locale before generating the CSV file in the spreadsheet.
Otherwise LibreCAD will not understand the generated CSV.

Catalan locale, but Spanish and French at least also use coma as decimal separator.
