When you play a card, can it spot itself? For example, if I play From Deep In Shadow, can I count the card itself as a  culture card I can spot? |

First off, events never hit the table, they go straight from your hand to your discard pile, so, that card couldn’t spot itself.
And for cards with spotting requirements, no, because you have to spot the others to get the card in play. |

No. Before a card comes into play it is in a ’void’ where it is neither in your hand or in play and all requirements to play it, and its ensuing results, are done without it being included in any spotting requirements.
For example, Undaunted can only boost Gandalf for the twilight already in the pool, not with those used for paying for the card. |

That was just a CRD reference, probably not helpful if I didnt point that out  |

That is incorrect. All costs most be paid before any effects take place. Exerting and placing the twilight (cost) is before spotting the twilight (effect). |
