It would stop the oxygen from getting to the fire and fire needs oxygen to burn.

It's late so let me know if that's a stupid idea but tell me why it wouldn't work if you think it's stupid.

It’s not a stupid idea. Just not practical the way you describe. Yet, cutting oxygen to a fire would be effective. Fighting fires with foam has been used to seal off oxygen when fighting fires with fuels and other combustible liquids and chemicals with the same idea in mind. I think your solution is a little further outside the box, but nice try.
