No... radiation is the movement of waves and particles, and influence of movement upon all other matter around it or in it's path... What happens though, is that it causes (excellerates) the atoms in any material it encounters (and that material becomes hot, the greater the radiation, the greater and more violently it will be heated)...

How heat radiation from fire?

Heat radiation from fire is produced when the flames and hot gases emit infrared radiation, which is a form of electromagnetic radiation. This radiation carries heat energy and can travel through air or space to transfer heat to surrounding objects or surfaces. The intensity of heat radiation depends on the temperature of the fire and the distance between the fire source and the object being heated.
