Certainly the technique we use for crosswind takeoffs on the NG is designed to avoid spoiler deployment during the takeoff roll, by limiting the into wind aileron to 1.5 units (about 6 degrees). This is to ensure that the takeoff performance that you calculated remains valid and reduce the risk of tailstrike caused by inadequate lift during rotation caused by the spoiler deployment.
