It depends.
If the wind is strong enough and the fire is small enough, for example a small camp fire, the wind could possibly extinguish the fire. Especially if the wind contains moisture.
However larger fires and fires with accelerants such as fuels will likely be worsened by the wind. In this case the wind is feeding the fire more oxygen.
With huge-scale fires, such as forest fires, the wind is your worst enemy. The wind will blow the fire in different directions, spreading it. And the wind will blow heavy smoke around, making visibility difficult for the rescuers and breathing difficult for those trapped within the fire.
So it depends on the fire type, size and whether there is any moisture in the wind.
