yes it will work, no it will not harm your jars.
just make sure the needle gets red hot.

technically, you could even 'flame' your needle on an electric stove by placing the needle tip on a red hot burner until the needle also glowed red hot.

butane is fine, theoretically it would be better because it burns hotter then a normal lighter but i have a sneaking sunspicion it it wont matter as long as the needle is red.

A butane lighter will work better, it will get the needle to red hot faster, i have had trouble getting needles red hot with normal lighters, takes ages.
