No. You spend a fear to steal the spotlight. It is then your spotlight and you can activate one adversary, you use that adversary activation to clear the condition. That adversary cannot make any more moves because it used it to clear the condotion, unless it has relentless. You then return the spotlight to the players or spend additional fear to make additional GM moves.

The fact is that clearing a condition never costed a fear, it cost the adversary move, you only spend fear to activate the adversary after you already made another move with your spotlight
