No.

Burning 3 candles puts out slightly more CO2 than a 13 watt CFL bulb. However, The CFL bulb puts out about 24 times more light than 3 candles.

In terms of a 100 watt incandescant lightbulb, it produces roughly the amount of light produced by 120 candles, however only produces about as much CO2 as 23 candles, so you could say it's about 5 times more efficient (in terms of pollution output) than a candle. A CFL bulb, then, is about 20 times more efficient than the candle.

Why is the light bulb safer than the candle?

Candles are able to start fires more easily than are light bulbs, although high wattage light bulbs are able to start fires as well. A smaller concern but a concern nonetheless is that burning candles consumes oxygen, and a light bulb does not. Also in a dark room a candle might unexpectedly go out, causing a safety concern in attempting to relight the candle in the dark.
