No, not all cactuses have spines. Some cactus plants have many more than others. Some have longer or shorter, finer or thicker spines. Some have white spines, some colored. And some don't have any spines at all.
Cactuses have a waxy coating to help them retain water, and they have spines to keep others from taking their water.
Cactuses belong to the plant group known as Angiosperms, specifically within the order Caryophyllales. They are further classified in the family Cactaceae, which includes a wide variety of species adapted to arid environments. Cactuses are characterized by their unique structures, such as thick, fleshy stems and spines instead of leaves, which help them conserve water.

Saguaro cacti do not have the longest needles among cacti. Their spines, which are actually modified leaves, can measure up to 3 inches long, but other species, such as the organ pipe cactus or certain species of the Ferocactus genus, can have longer spines. The saguaro is more notable for its impressive height and iconic shape rather than the length of its spines.
The duration of Cactuses is 1.55 hours.

The cactus has evolved to live in areas with little rainfall. They have lost there leaves and in their place have grown spines which cut down on water loss. The spines also provide some protection from animals that might be tempted to eat the plant. Some cacti have dense spine coverage that help shade the plant from intense sunlight.
They have spines for a few reasons. The main two reasons are: 1- Most to all cacti live in hot sunny deserts where they receive a lot of sun. However, the skin of most cacti are sensitive and will get "sunburned" so the spines, believe it or not, give a lot of shade for the cactus. 2-The spines are used for defence against animals,insects,reptiles, etc. They have to defend their moisture inside them from animals who try to drink and eat the cactuses water.

Since decomposers are organisms that make their own food, I think cactuses are decomposers
