More or less true.
The 90s show made me a Spider-Man too. My earliest memory of Spider-Man is watching the 90s show as a three-year old. It's also one of my first ever memories (in the grand scheme of things).
The Raimi films definitely borrowed a lot from that show. The idea of the Green Goblin being a split-personality was from there, and the way they did Venom is exactly like in the 90s show - the symbiote taking over while Peter is asleep and Peter waking up in the position he is in. Eddie Brock's jerkish attitude is also from that show.
