To burn it as in using it for energy that would be a no unless you have been consuming less calories than the maintenance amount needed for your body and you have zero body fat. But under those conditions muscle would be consumed not doing exercise. 
This is a common misconception in the gym among the uneducated. There are 2 types of muscle fibers in the body - short and long. The short muscle fibers are enhanced with anaerobic activity such as weight lifting. Aerobic activity enhances the long fiber. Short muscle fibers give the bulky, definition muscle shape and long fibers give the long lean smooth look.  spending majority of time doing aerobics creates a runners physique.
