No. Sea urchins are echinoderms, meaning, appropriately enough, "spiny skin". Some of the characteristics of arthropods are jointed appendages, an exoskeleton, and a segmented body. While the hard test, or shell, of sea urchins could be thought of as an exoskeleton, sea urchins have no jointed appendages and do not have a segmented body.

Some examples of arthropods are shrimps, crabs, lobsters, and insects.

I think a sea anenome and a sea urchin can live together because i have a little aquarium and there is a sea urchin and and a sea anenome (if that's how you spell it) living in there and they were perfectly fine. BUT if you have a sea urchin do not have any crabs in there, because my sea urchin killed one, and almost killed another one by taking its claw off. :(
