No, but the Holy Spirit, which is represented by fire works through these sacraments. We Catholics do not baptize or confirm with fire nor do we hand out fire as Jesus Christ.

Roman Catholic AnswerFire is a symbol of the Holy Spirit, it is typically used as a symbol of confirmation. Confirmation, Baptism, and the Most Holy Eucharist are all sacraments of initiation, and the Holy Spirit is involved in all three, so fire, as a symbol of the Holy Spirit could certainly be used as a symbol of all three. It is not, as noted above, a sacrament in itself, however.
