No. Not nearly enough EM radiation to vibrate your fuel into combustion.
The static electricity generated by you getting out of the car is a bigger firehazard than your phone.
I just watched the Mythbusters episode about that here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uw6-PhvcS3M The myth is busted but there is a small chance that it could cause fire. Just watch the video. :)
