No, once a year the alpacas get their wool sheared off (right before summer, so they won't overheat) and then the wool gets spun to make high-quality products like mittens and hats. Alpacas are way smaller than llamas, and more gentle too. They're like giant rabbits! Llamas tend to be more aggressive, bigger, and their wool is a lot rougher than Alpacas so it isn't ideal for cloth.
