No you need a IR reciver module.Its a small 3 pin device that recives IR signals it demudulates it and sents it out.You could put a transitor on that to give it enugh curent to run a electrnic ignitor(Or hair thin wire around a match)
You can get these reciver modules from apliances that use IR remotes or buy them in a store they are not expensive.Make shure its for 38Khz becuse on that feqency most remotes work.
If you dont want to trasfer data they will work quite a distance but the problem whith them is that if sunlight directly shines on the reviver it may not work becuse the light its blinding it(You try staring at the sun while trying to look at a airplane)
