Yes, the Spirit is involved in every area of our conversion: bringing us to faith, repentance, during water baptism the Spirit performs a circumcision of our heart, as well as filling us with himself and then sanctifying us, glorifying us, etc.
Iow, the Spirit making us alive is not necessarily Spirit baptism but the work of the Spirit in salvation.
