It’s possible, yes. It’s not highly likely.

Coronal Mass Ejecta have caused many problems with the magnetosphere of the earth, caused massive EMP on electrical systems (taking down power systems and generators in hydro plants in the past). Causing fires is a bit more difficult, but a solar flare could conceivably hit us. CMEs throw out more matter, in general than a flare though.
