Yes. Pepper and Spinach have a documented companion-planting benefit. University of Minnesota Extension suggests early lettuce, spinach, or basil in beds that later hold peppers for succession, weed management, and soil cover.
This is a practical yes, not a magic guarantee. Keep the normal spacing for Pepper and Spinach, watch airflow and watering, and treat the companion note as one useful planning signal alongside sunlight, soil, and harvest timing.
