No. Fire extinguishers use a dry powder to smother the fire. Firefighters use two types of foam that can be broken down into more categories.

A class "A" foam is actually a type of soap. It is used to break up water tension so that water can seep into the ground and/or fuel better.

A class "B" foam is used to make a blanket that smothers gasoline or diesel type fires.
