Is re-email an actual word?
I saw this sentence:
The file has to be sent as a CSV file by re-email
Is this the proper way to say "send the file by replying to this email"?

To me "re-email" would mean to sent the original email again, not to reply to an other's email.

Hard to tell without context, but it does seem like one plausible interpretation (forwarded e-mail being another, as KillingTime points out), considering that most e-mail editors prepend replies with "Re:" which could, at least in theory, make someone refer to them as "re" mail.
