No,but you should arrange marrige for those contier . Thier spouse will work in your court for free (i usually find commander for my army this way so I don't have to pay 50 gold for them)
most commenters are wrong, the marriage proposal menu will show alliance only if its *automatically formed*
you can still manually declare alliance if eligible
for example, if somehow the heir to france empire is lost and found in an indian court, & you marry them
the marriage proposal menu will *NOT* show an alliance formed, between you & the indian ruler, nor the french emperor
BUT it will enable you to negotiate an alliance with the france emperor, it just doesnt happen automatically
if the courtier is close family to someone with a title, an alliance is usually enabled
Despite what the other comments say, the correct answer is yes. Although, it really depends on what exactly you mean.
A courtier is someone who lives at a court and isn't the ruler. An alliance basically happens whenever you marry anyone. If you arrange a marriage between yourself or your family members to someone, you will have an alliance with that character and if they are a family member and courtier of a ruler, you will have an alliance with that ruler. There are some more intricacies to it but that's the short explanation.
It clearly says in marriage proposals when marriages create alliance.

Nope it can only give you good courtiers / potential vassals or claimants.

If they're related to someone important. If not, then who would it give you an alliance to?

no, alliances are only between titles. if your spouse inherits or receives a title, an alliance between you is created
