I believe the residency rules are a total of 183 days in a year, not consecutive, so,it would not help.
Also, 183 days is for tax purposes, it's 3 months for residency.

How would you prove you had been to France? and as has been said it's 183 days in any year, and after 3 months Spain you must apply for residencia.
