No, spider monkeys, like all monkeys, are mammals and all mammals are vertebrates; they all have vertebral columns (spines). Invertebrates have no backbone (spine), no internal skeleton, no head with a brain and central nervous system. For more information on vertebrates and invertebrates please see the links and related questions associated with this question.

To qualify as invertebrates the animal must not have backbones or an internal skeleton.
Since Spiders do not have backbones or internal skeletons (they have an exo-skeleton), they are invertebrates.
Only bony fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals have backbones and are, therefore considered, vertebrates. The other 98% of all animals on earth, in terms of numbers of species types, are invertebrates.
Please, see related questions and links for more detailed information.
No, a spider is not considered to be an invertebrate. A spider is a part of the arachnid family.
