No. Every candle undergoes the same combustion reaction involving ONLY the hydrocarbons in the candle and oxygen from the air. The resulting heat causes the wax to melt and release odor particles. There are even some candles called "smoker's candles" with combinations of oils in the wax specifically designed to cover up or neutralize cigarette smoke odor. However, the smoke remains in the air and is not ever absorbed by the candle.

NO. Not at all. It may minimise the smell though.
