In general, no. A flare gun, properly called a flare projector, is capable of launching only a light weight, low velocity projectile, and is not suitable for use as a weapon. If an attempt were to be made to fire a standard firearm cartridge from a flare projector, it will likely destroy the projector, with a strong possibility of injury to the shooter.
