I have created an app to collect some data. Currently these data is saved as a .CSV file. Now I want to save it directly to a DB Server. Is it possible with MIT App Inventor.

Which database server? You have a choice:

mySQL
sqLite
BuIlt-in sqLite (on App)
Google Sheets
CloudDB - Redis
Firebase

My choice is sqLite database server. Is it possible to save data from App to DB server installed  in my machine?

If doing it locally on your network, if expecting to access your machine from outside of your network then you will have to expose your machine and the database to the internet.

I have not tried it, but the extensions available for using sqLite on the device, "may" be able to refer to an external sqLite DB ?

Otherwise some additional coding will be required to get this working
