In essence, the right idea, just some kinks to work out.
Remember: to sit, in Spanish, we say to sit ONESELF (sentarse, so a reflexive pronoun (underlined) is required.

You have to be careful to not say something unintended when using Spanish. I've personally made the mistake, more than once, of saying, "Me gustas," thinking I was saying "I like you." Spanish speakers become disturbed when they hear this sentence and they correct you. Actually it means, roughly, "I think you're hot." The correct phrase is "Me caes bien."
I'm not certain, but I feel uneasy about translating "sit by me" into Spanish. It could have unexpected sexual overtones. Why not avoid potential problems and simply say, "Would you like to eat lunch with me? ¿Quieres almorzar conmigo?
