In the heat of the moment is more in an argument and on the spur of the moment is more a quick decision to do something. Like: In the heat of the moment she decided to throw away the note from the friend with whom she just had an argument with. But: On the spur of the moment she decided to drive to the beach as this was her favourite place to chill out.
