Is it identity theft if I didn't actually spend any money?

Yes. You can be charged with a crime simply for possessing the personal identification information of another person with the intent to use it fraudulently. You do not have to complete a transaction to face felony charges. In the 17th Judicial Circuit, prosecutors often use digital evidence and search history to prove "intent" even if no financial loss occurred to the victim.
