I use Spring with long xml files for beans.
Is it possible at edit time to check if the names of the classes are correct and all references exist?

As others have mentioned, this is the responsibility of an IDE before application runtime, or a simpler class that attempts to load the configuration if spinning up the app is cost-prohibitive.
The major IDEs (Elipse, NetBeans, and Intellij) all have strong Spring support. This includes class completion, jumping between config file usage(s) and definition, gutter marks to indicate a class is a Spring bean, etc.
