Sounds like the carbon brushes need replacing in the motor, they can cause a screeching sound as they wear down.

If my washer makes a squealing sound during the spin cycle would the noted parts still need to be replaced, brake stator, brake rotor and lining and snubber?

one of the above. Tip the washer back and turn the main drive pulley while spraying a little WD-40 in there. That will quiet down the washer.

My MayTag Atlantis washer will not spin or drain the water out, when it gets to the rinse cycle or spin cycle , it just makes a buzzing or clicking noise.

The brake mechanism is not releasing properly. The noise your hearing is the motor trying to move but can't. Do not continue to operate the washer or you will burn out the motor...an expensive replacement. See instructions for my other solutions.
