yes
that's how they make different colours for fireworks, for example. Stuff like sodium burns yellow, while stuff like strontium burns red

>I’m dumb, so in the presence of oxygen carbon burns orange at lower temperatures but at high enough ones it burns blue?
Yes - higher temperatures shift the colour towards and even past blue. Carbon subnitride can emit UV light.
>Would a different element that burns a different color make a differently colored flame if it was able to be ignited at a certain temperature or in an environment not like here on earth?
Yes, in addition to the black body radiation colour you also get selective absorptions and emissions dependent on the elements present.
Flame colour testing is used in chemistry to determine what elements are present, see also spectroscopy.
