No. Regular foam will not work for soundproofing a room.
There are two types of soundproofing materials - sound blocking and sound absorbing. Materials like foam are usually considered sound absorbing because they are porous and prevent sounds from leaving a room. Unfortunately, porous materials really aren't effective at completely absorbing or blocking any type of noise - especially foam.
Your best bet is to get something like Quietrock. It is one of the most popular soundproofing materials on the market today and has both sound absorption and sound blocking properties.
Whatever you choose, do not under any circumstances use materials without knowing and corroborating their resistance to fire. You could seal yourself in a chamber that is engulfed in flame in moments, risking injury/death to yourself and others in the building. Another threat when using improper materials is the poisonous gas they could give off, in a fire.

How does soundproofing work in a studio?
Studio foam and fiberglass panels are meant to minimize the reflected sound in the room to improve the quality of the mix or performance. It is not designed to soundproof the room. The only way to truly soundproof a room is by using special building materials during construction, such as acoustic sheetrock, and isolating the vibration of the walls from external contact. Usually this involves creating a room within the room with an air barrier and isolating joist supports.

What materials are used for soundproofing a room or house?
There are three main techniques to home soundproofing, all of which work on the principle that sound waves keep traveling until they hit some resistance and that the volume of sound fades as it travels. For soundproofing walls, the first and the easiest way is to create space in the rooms. Large rooms stop sounds from traveling. But if this is not possible, then cheap soundproofing options can be availed by placing heavy furniture around the house. Heavy items absorb sound and act as a resistance to sound waves. Commonplace household items and building materials such as sofas, thick curtains and even marble slabs act as good soundproofing material. The third soundproofing option is to get a house professionally insulated. Professional insulators use double paned windows to minimize noise travel. Window plugs are filled in the gaps to make sure that the room is completely impervious to sound invasion. Also, soundproofing ceilings as well as walls are necessary in order to make a room quiet. For this, layers of thin drywalls are added in between rooms so that they can absorb the sound waves. At times, wallpapers can also act as good sound absorbents. For soundproofing floors, the best option is to get thick carpets which muffle footsteps. Appropriate soundproofing not only prevents outside sound from entering the house, but also prevents unwanted sounds from disturbing the neighborhood. That's why it becomes important for home owners to use the correct soundproofing products and techniques to make their haven a comfort zone - away from the intrusion of unwanted noises.
