It can--if you heat it enough. But for yogurt, it really depends on the type of yogurt - mesophiic or thermophiic. With thermophlic bacteria, the dairy liquid is heated to as high as 125 degrees F to allow the bacteria to multiply. Mesophilic bacteria multiply well at room temperature - around 72 degrees F, so the higher thermophilic temperatures would tend to kill them off.
Most of the commercially available yogurts found in the USA are thermophilic where mesphilic yogurts are available overseas.
Examples of mesohhilic yogurts - Villi, Piima, and Matsoi.

What is the difference between fermentation and pasteurization?
asteurization is a method of heating milk for example to a high heat (185 or more) in order to quickly kill *all* micro-organisms in it.Fermentation for food (again for milk, but there are other kinds of fermentation) is a method for allowing certain "good" bacteria to grow so that they can begin eating the natural milk sugar (lactose) in milk and turn it into lactic acid (to make yogurt, etc).The bacteria have an optimal temperature for growing (around 115-120 or so)-- too high a heat like the high temp required for pasteurization would kill them. That's why when yogurt is made, any pasteurization or heating-for-extra-thickness will have to happen before the particular yogurt bacteria/starter are added to the milk.
Heating a liquid to kill harmful bacteria is called?

Why good bacteria are important for your body?
Certain bacteria (the good bacteria) helps the body's immune system by fighting off the bad bacteria, and plays a major role in the digestive tract. That's one reason some people get diarrhea when taking antibiotics. The antibiotics kill the bad bacteria, but they also kill the good bacteria, as well. So for that reason, it's always a good idea to eat foods with active cultures, such as yogurt or buttermilk when taking antibiotics, because they replace the good bacteria back in the body. Actually, it's a good idea to eat foods with active cultures even when you're not taking antibiotics, because they will help your body's natural defenses against the bad bacteria.

What is the correlation between antibiotic use and thrush?
Antibiotics kill the bad bacteria which make us sick, but they also kill the good bacteria that our bodies need. The good bacteria actually help keep the "bugs" at bay, so when we take antibiotics and they kill all the bacteria (good and bad) we are then more susceptible to other problems, such as thrush. This can usually be avoided by taking pro biotics (cultured yogurt) or acidophylus tablets which replace the good bacteria in our bodies. You can take them while taking antibiotics, but can also take them full time, even when not taking antibiotics.
What does pasteurize mean?
