No. In fact, nitrogen is commonly used to provide an inert atmosphere in which to work with highly reactive compounds.

Some nitrogen compounds are, however, highly explosive. One well-known example is trinitrotoluene, better known by the abbreviation TNT.

Is this true without nitrogen in the air a fire will not burn?

While nitrogen is a non-combustible gas that can be used to extinguish fires, it is not entirely accurate to say that without nitrogen in the air, a fire will not burn. Fires require oxygen to burn, and while nitrogen dilutes the oxygen concentration in the air and can help suppress fires, it is not the absence of nitrogen that prevents fires from burning.
