Among other things LTSpice allows to provide stimuli in .wav files. So you can 
have whatever you want time dependent input voltage.

Besides that, LTSpice is essentially GUI + SPICE, and all SPICE features are 
still accessible through regular SPICE directives to be entered through text 
files. IIRC SPICE allows to specify stimuli as piecewise-linear functions, so 
if it's the case, you case still have time-dependent input voltage without .wav 
files.
