Hi, EC2 compute driver currently doesn't support it, but looking at the API docs ( http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/index.html?ApiReference-query-RequestSpotInstances.html) it's pretty similar to the "RunInstances" call so adding a new extension method based on the create_node shouldn't be too hard.
If you want to take a stab and implement it, you are welcome. If you need help you can also join #libcloud @ freenode.
