Not exactly. They have what is called an exoskeleton, which means a skeleton on the outside. The shell or carapaceof a bug is its skeleton.

No, Spiders do not have skeletons. They have what is called an exoskeleton, which is like having a skeleton on the outside of the body, with the soft body parts inside it.
