No, not from hot air alone. Tornadoes need thunderstorms to form. Warm, moist air is what fuels a thunderstorm, but the storms also need a cool enough upper atmosphere to make the air unstable. There also needs to be a lifting mechanism. While this can be caused by local factors, the thunderstorms most likely to spawn tornadoes usually need something more organized such as a cold front or dry line. Additionally, these storms need strong lower-level wind shear to induce rotation.

Humans can not effect a tornado. Only nature can make a tornado occur. The cold and hot air curl together and form the tornado.
