No. Sirius is far from a cold star.

Sirius is actually a binary system about 8.6 light years away. Sirius A is a white main sequence star just over twice the size of the sun. Sirius B is a white dwarf stellar remnant of about 0.978 solar masses.

The temperature of the two stars are far higher than that of our sun. The sun is about 5778 Kelvin, Sirius A is almost twice that at 9,940 K and Sirius B is many times that at 25,200 K.
