In avatar no but scientifically yes through thermal energy manipulation is a very interesting topic it involves the manipulation of heat you have to be a scientist to understand this. Imagine absorbing heat in a certain area this causes sub zero it is the temperature where heat is completely absent and since there is water in the atmosphere there will be bits of frost in the ground and air and if it is concentrated to organic life forms their heat will be absorb causing the body to freeze from the inside and out since the human body contain 70% water exposing it to sub zero degrees can freeze the entire body in other words frostbite. Thermal manipulation is the manipulation of heat in the atmosphere once you absorb heat in a certain area then compress it in a simple form like for example a torch or flame you can easily redirect it as a thermal wave a.k.a. a fire energy blast but to use it you must absorb a large amount of heat on other words energy like for example fire, lightning, sunlight, or even natural heat in the atmosphere that when the freezing power comes in you have to absorb enough energy before you attack. When heat is controlled it is possible to create pseudo wind manipulation effect wind is caused by difference in the atmosphere also pressure is a dependent variable for temperature in other words [pV = nRT] when molecules are cooled in one spot the molecules slow down and the pressure drops rapidly then air around it will be drawn there, generating wind finally you can manipulate the wind if you heat points around it to agitate the molecules when this method is used it makes it seem like you can manipulate wind.
