yes, but it is dangerous.

It's been done before. The biggest problem is the flare exiting your pile of wood. Firing a flare gun into a tinder nest almost always results in it being scattered. Firing a flare gun towards the ground results in the flare landing in an unpredictable place within 100 yards.
