Yes. Arthropods are characterized by an exoskeleton made mostly from the tough protein chitin, also joint appendages and segmented bodies.

What type of skeleton do woodlice have?

Woodlice have an exoskeleton, which is a hard outer structure that provides support and protection. This exoskeleton is made of chitin, a polysaccharide that is common in arthropods. Unlike vertebrates, woodlice do not have an internal skeleton; instead, their exoskeleton must be periodically shed and renewed through a process called molting as they grow.
