Theoretically, yes. For the RF tag to work, the circuit must be able to complete itself which it can't do if the path is blocked or damaged. However, I wouldn't trust a lighter to consistently burn away a path in the circuit, and it is probably quicker and easier to just cut across the circuit with a razor or a box cutter.
