No, and no.
Arachnos armour is only available to the villain Epic Archetypes, as far as I am aware (with a couple of small exceptions).
The wisdom of Shadowe: Ghostraptor: The Shadowe is wise ...; FFM: Shadowe is no longer wise.
; Techbot_Alpha: Also, what Shadowe said. It seems he is still somewhat wise 
; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*

- Demon Summoning
- Mercenaries
- Necromancy
- Ninjas
- Robotics
- Thugs
All of which are genericly themed. You can't have any faction NPCs as henchmen (there's some other pets you can get 「the Arachnos Lore pets might interest you!」, but they can't be directly controlled like henchmen and aren't permanently out like henchmen).
You can get some Arachnos armor through vet rewards (the helmets), but not much. The full widow/crab outfits are only available to Solders of Arachnos, and in their first costume slot.
Although, there are special permanent 'temporary' powers (generally given out as rewards for contests by the Devs, or for going to special real-world events) that can make you look like an NPC from various factions. Come i21, you'll be able to buy many different ones in the Paragon Market (prices TBA with i21). They've also given out various actually temporary forms of those powers during various Halloween events in the past, as well as there being at least one mission in Faultline where you get an Arachnos costume change temporary power (very short duration, though!).

You could do a pretty decent "master mind" with a Crab Spider and lots of recharge. They get like 5 pets (all are those mechanical spider things you see Arachnos using sometimes).
Level a villain to 20 to unlock the Villain Epics, start a Soldier, respec him to a Crab at level 24. I think the final group of spiders show up around level 32. Slot like the bejeesus for recharge.

With mace mastery, you can get another arachnobot at 47 (the other patrons also have a pet in the lvl 47 slot, but the arachnobot completes the set |

). And then there's the Arachnos Lore incarnate abilities that gives you a toxic Tarantula for up to 7 spider pets! (also gives a bane or something. I ignore him.)

Actually, pretty sure you can control the Lore pets as henchmen, Kitsune Knight.

Any chance of getting Black Widow outfit (can you make it character creator)?
