I don't think so; it begins to decompose into ferrous sulfide (FeS) and elemental sulfur around 550 °C. The sulfur reacts with air to form sulfur dioxide. At higher temperatures, the ferrous sulfide also breaks down, leaving iron oxide. Pyrite roasting is sometimes used as a first step toward producing sulfuric acid. It's a nasty process.
