No it won't even in large doses, what it will do is increase the soil PH which some grasses don't like so check with a garden center in your area for your soils needs.

∙ 8y agoYes, lime kills moss in grass lawns through indirect, not direct, means. Hydrated lime raises the soil pH above 5.8, the outer limits of acid-loving moss tolerances. But it will have to be applied at rates not exceeding 20 pounds (9.07 kilograms) per 1,000 feet (304.8 meters) since it can be damaging to nearby, non-target vegetation.

Does lime kill grass?
Only if it needs lime. Have someone take a soil test for you to check the pH level. If it reads between 6.5 and 6.7 your fine. If the test reads low...its too acidic and then and only then do you apply lime which may green up the lawn. If the numbers are too high then it needs to be more acidic with possibly a sulfur application. As a hot product I recommend only a professional apply sulfur or a high sulfur fertilzer...if improperly applied to your lawn, it will burn and then your grass wont be green for a while. The practice of throwing down lime every year is an old farmers tale. You could be taking your lawn in the wrong direction.
