Can an object being heated be hotter than the source heating it?

Yes, the only way for that to work is if you have the right amount of oxygen, though. Blue fire can get hotter if it's heated by red fire and sand can be heated by lightning, causing it to turn to glass. Without the the right amount of oxygen, the object being heated will only get as hot as its source. Very rarely does the object get hotter than its source.

Do hot objects absorb infrared radiation?

All objects emit (give out) and absorb (take in) thermal radiation, which is also called infrared radiation. The hotter an object is, the more infrared radiation it emits. However; the hotter an object, the faster it will emit infrared radiation. Even though hotter objects can absorb infrared radiation, they will continue to emit infrared radiation much faster than they absorb it from any colder objects / sources around them, until an equilibrium is achieved with the objects surroundings i.e. it is always an antagonistic relationship with the objects surroundings and the surroundings with the object.
