Unfortunately, the answer is no to both.
The only officially supported databases are SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL and
Oracle. There is support for a couple of other databases available as external
libraries [1].
I'm not aware of any efforts to build a backend for SQLFire -- they might
exist, but I haven't gone looking for them, and I haven't seen any
announcements on Django-dev or Django-users.
There certainly aren't any efforts underway to add an official SQLFire driver
as part of the core. Django's has a database interface specifically so that
third parties can build drivers externally to the core. The core team would
rather see this external ecosystem develop, rather than try and force all
database development into the core.
