No. Tarantulas use their mouth parts to chew up their prey, and they drench the chewed up stuff with digestive juices. Then, when the chewed up stuff gets digested into a fluid the tarantula sucks it into its stomach.

What are the eating habits of west African tarantula?

West African tarantulas mainly eat insects and other arthropods, especially larger ones like crickets and grasshoppers, June beetles, cicadas, and caterpillars. When a tarantula captures its prey, it first bites it, injecting it with a paralyzing venom. The tarantula then secretes digestive enzymes that turn the victim's body into soup. The spider can then suck up its meal using straw-like mouthparts.
