No, you can't download these things, it does require the CD.

It's possible to set Office to stop recognizing a language (so that you don't
get the messages). START/Programs/Microsoft Office/Microsoft Office XP
Language Tools (or something similar). In there, remove Spanish from the list
of active languages.

You can still format the language of the document as Spanish and then run
spell check when you get it on a machine where the tools are installed.
