Here are the Kriegsmarine admirals that were (to my knowledge) awarded the Spanish Order of Military Merit. Any additions/corrections are welcome, especially regarding the award dates.

 

1) Erich Raeder:

- Grand Cross of the Spanish Order of Military Merit with White Decoration (1 January 1941)

 

2) Wilhelm Canaris:

- Spanish Order of Military Merit 3rd Class with White Decoration (4 May 1939)

 

3) Joachim Lietzmann:

- Spanish Order of Military Merit (Class unknown) (source: his ribbon bar)

 

4) Hermann Boehm:

- Grand Cross of the Spanish Order of Military Merit with White Decoration

 

It's also possible that some other admirals that received the Order of Naval Merit (see the other thread), also received this award.
