Since the Air Force Hates the mission of close-air-support why can't the Army have fixed-wing combat aircraft like the Marines?

Because of Air Force objections. The Air Force objected to the Army even having armed COIN aircraft (like the OV-1 and OV-10). As for the Air Force hating close air support, this comes from where, exactly? That aside, the military isn't about what one likes or dislikes - it's about accomplishing the mission.

Does airforce fight on land?

The primary role of the Air Force is to conduct aerial operations, including air combat, reconnaissance, and support for ground forces. However, they can engage in land operations indirectly through air support, such as providing close air support for ground troops or conducting airstrikes against land targets. Some Air Force personnel may also receive training in joint operations, which can include land-based activities, but their main focus remains in the air.
