Yes, some spinal nerves do branch off of the spinal cord, so the nerves can collect the messages for the body.

The Neural Formaina are holes that are formed between each joint of the spinal column through which the spinal nerves that branch off the spinal cord pass. These nerves go to your arms, legs, torso and various organs, carrying messages to and from the brain and body. Capacious means open and spacious, indicating that the nerves are not compromised by the degeneration of the spinal joints that can narrow the Neural Formamina.
The Neural Foramen are grooves in the vertebra, just behind the vertebral body that the nerves that branch off the spinal cord exit the spinal canal from. If they are grossly patent they are open, and free from obstruction, so there is no compression of the nerves that course through these channels.
The spinal nerves that exit the vertebral column through lateral openings or gaps between the vertebrae are called "intervertebral foramina." These foramina allow the spinal nerves to branch off from the spinal cord and extend to various parts of the body, facilitating communication between the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. Each pair of spinal nerves corresponds to a specific segment of the vertebral column.
Spinal Nerves Are Both Sensory and Motor. Spinal nerves are not one or the other.
The nerves connected to the spinal cord are called spinal nerves.
The spinal cord is like the main road through a city, it provides a pathway down the body for the other nerves to branch off and reach muscles, tissues, organs etc. and for these nerves to join back up and return to the brain.
