No, it is rumored to but has been scientifically proven to not to.

I have Arthritis and I believe it has recently been exacerbated by four Brown Recluse bites in the past two months. My knee is now considerably swollen and stiff.

The general consensus is that spider bites do not trigger RA. I have long since been a victim of RA and was bitten around the neck several times by a red back spider several times without having my RA triggered. Having said that however I have noted that even a small splinter or infection can start a flareup going. So looking at it that way it is possible that some sort of immune reaction has started taking place.
