No, it isn't.

Although lobsters belong to a different subphylum than Arachnida. Lobsters are 10-legged (including the claws) Crustaceans, unlike the 8-legged Spiders, ticks, and mites that are Arachnids.

Crustaceans and Arachnids (and another subphylum, Insecta) each belong to the phylum Arthropoda, meaning 'jointed foot'. If you look at the Wikipedia article on any of these, these classification 'trees' are shown in the right margin.

Absoloutly not! A spider is an Arachnid, a lobster is not. A lobster would only be a spider if it had 8 legs!
