Yes, the word for friend/friends in Portuguese and Spanish is amigo/s. However, the pronunciation is different.
In Portuguese, you would pronounce amigo as: a-mee-goo
In Portuguese, you would pronounce amigos as: a-mee-goozh
In Spanish, you would pronounce amigo as: ah-mee-goh
In Spanish, you would pronounce amigos as: ah-mee-gos
Both languages will also differ in their slang/colloquial expressions for friends. For example, in Spanish, the word 'compadre/compa' is sometimes used to say friend, but that wouldn't be used in Portuguese.
