Not always because depending on the reason for the lean out when the
engine missfired and back fires it looses power and required fuel flow
so demand for it decreases and it may run alright for a bit afterwards
when it recovers. Also something this backfire can occur when there is
a throttle change and enrichment lags enough to cause the "pop" from
lean out. This iis not to say it could not be ignition but more often
than not when it spits through intake it is from leanout under load or
engine acceleration.

"Caused by a slight trace of hydrocarbons in the coolant which means a

Maybe but at same time a serious backfire through intake can kill a
engine and damage injectors (and some sensors) and sometimes carbs.
Again I am not rulling out you idea it is just I have seen some real
serious back fires in my life and some that caused damage to point
engine would not run until it was repaired.
