Turbo noise

Is it normal to hear the turbo spool up every time you accelerate?

...yes...because its a turbocharged engine.  Any time the turbo is making boost, you will hear a variety of levels of sound.

I should add, if you are hearing grinding or growling from the turbo, or it sounds like a really loud howling or honking, you've got an issue.
